Aer Lingus passengers describe 'complete nightmare' of getting back to Dublin after cancellations

Passengers have described their "nightmare" with trying to get home to Ireland after Aer Lingus cancelled over a dozen flights on Sunday.

The airline said Air Traffic Control strikes, a spike in Covid-19 cases among staff and ongoing issues at airports caused the cancellations. They have since apologised to passengers and said they "sought to re-accommodate disrupted passengers on the next available alternative service".

Customers have said they faced confusion following the cancellations regarding when they will be rebooked onto another flight and if expenses will be covered.
