80 flights have been cancelled by Aer Lingus from next Thursday to Sunday, as a result of ongoing work to rule by pilots.

It comes as both the airline and the pilots' union, IALPA, await a Labour Court recommendation to resolve the pay row.

Since pilots began a work-to-rule last Wednesday, 548 flights have been cancelled by Aer Lingus up to Sunday July 14th.

That also includes flights impacted by an eight-hour stoppage last Saturday.

72 of the flights in the latest batch are out of or to Dublin Airport, with eight in and out of Cork.

The Labour Court is considering a recommendation in a bid to resolve the pay row - with pilots initially looking for a near 24 per cent increase.

Aer Lingus says it wants more flexibility and productivity from pilots in exchange for increases above 12.25%.

That Labour Court recommendation could be issued later today.
