Aer Lingus slams 'unacceptable' disruptions caused by drone activity at Dublin Airport

Aer Lingus has hit out at the lack of action to ensure illegal drone activity near Dublin Airport stops and says it is "unacceptable" as the airline calls for laws to be pushed through "as a matter of urgency".

On Tuesday, the capital’s airport brought operations to a halt after a drone was spotted flying within its airspace.

Dublin Airport took to social media to warn its passengers, and wrote: "Due to illegal drone activity in the vicinity of Dublin Airport, all flight operations are currently suspended. Further updates will follow."
