From Ryanair's website.
The Irish Aviation Authority advised Ryanair last evening (8th February) that due to another unofficial strike action by their Air Traffic Control staff at Shannon, the airport will be closed to aircraft from 9pm to midnight on Saturday 9th February.
This will inevitably cause disruption, delay and possibly cancellations. Ryanair apologises to passengers for any inconvenience this action will cause (which is out of our control).
Ryanair once again calls on Bertie Ahern and his government to put in place appropriate contingency plans to keep Irish airports open and avoid passengers being hijacked by wildcat trade unions' strikes.
As usual Bertie Ahern sits on his hands doing nothing while passengers are needlessly and unfairly disrupted by his out of control trade union pals. Time to get your finger out Bertie?
