Angry JFK-DUB 02 Jan 05 Cancelled!!!

Evening,

My daughter is stuck in JFK due to NO yes NO replacement aircraft
and flight cancelled, first available seats JFK-DUB Saturday 8th,
however could only offer stand-by this evening JFK-CDG-DUB.

Has now been booked tomorrow American Airlines JFK-LHR and then standby LHR-DUB all all flights are showing FULL.

She is a full fare passenger (no more staff rebates as over 23 and unable to travel on my concessions) and also been told to book herself in to a hotel, keep all receipts and claim back from Aer Lingus on arrival Dublin.

As this cancellation is the result of events yesterday, I would have thought that Aer Lingus would have got their act together after 24 hours and obtained a replacement aircraft and not cancel schedule flights at a peak travel period.

I am not impressed with Aer Lingus and their attitude towards their so called valued passengers, call themsevles a FLAG CARRIER with NO back-up when things go wrong, these are schedule services not charter flights by a third rate nation!
