Situation at Dublin Airport: Discussion
Ms Lynne Embleton:
No, not at all. As I said earlier, we said we would operate 90% of our capacity for the summer peak. We are resourced to do that. Indeed, our pilot community has 6% more pilots than in 2019. All areas in Aer Lingus have been resourced for the schedule we intended to fly. In terms of cancellations, I refer to the number we mentioned earlier, namely, ten round trips in a week. We are cancelling much fewer than other network carriers. As was said earlier, the network and connecting impact of disruption at hubs are causing the issues.
