Aer Lingus pilots are due to start their work to rule action from midnight.

Aircraft positioning and rotation will cause more disruption than the pilots during an ongoing dispute in Aer Lingus.

That's according to the owner of Cloud 9 travel in Tullamore, Jackie Spain, as the airline has begun its meeting with the Labour Court today.
