"Customers impacted by Saturday’s disruption are being contacted and where possible rebooked onto the next available Aer Lingus flight.
"We have also added additional capacity and services on a number of our European routes today and tomorrow to accommodate customers impacted by the disruption.
"Customers who wish to apply for a refund or change their travel plans, can do so free of charge through
aerlingus.com, our social media channels or via our call centres."
Aer Lingus said that while numbers of call centre agents has increased, wait times could still be longer than usual due to the "level of disruption".

"Customers who secured their own accommodation will be reimbursed accordingly.
"Once again Aer Lingus sincerely apologises for the severe disruption caused and we are doing all we can to re-accommodate disrupted customers as efficiently as possible."

cancelled on Saturday (10 September), with the exception of a number of flights to Spain and Portugal.
