Yep. The confused passengers were wondering why they were the only ones on the "Aer Lingus" route network to divert that day.
A great big "Good job" to the management team at Aer Lingus..
I'm sure there will be another few promotions for that masterful idea.
Oh and by the way there is an oversubscription from the "legacy" pilots in Dublin to go to Gatwick and operate out of there on the new terms and conditions as set out by the company.
So despite the fact they could crew all their shceduled flights with their own highly trained and qualified flight crew for absolutely no extra cost (actually at quite a saving when compared to the salaries in Dublin) they elect to send in a parasite airline who can't even operate to CAT II/III conditions.
Well done ol boy. How about creating a new management position.
Manager of amusing cash depleting ideas with responsibilities for paying others to do the job we can do for ourselves at smaller cost.
Only geniuses need apply.
