Website, app and self check-in back up and running and flights not impacted after morning of IT disruption

The airline did not give any indication as to the cause of the IT outage. Last September its systems suffered a major breakdown which resulted in dozens of flights being cancelled and massive delays at airports with the travel plans of thousands of people thrown into disarray.

As a result, Aer Lingus had to revert to manual methods for checking people in on a Saturday morning, a move which almost immediately led to large delays and disruption, something airline will be most anxious to avoid this weekend. The Dublin figure was 30,000 passengers up on the previous busiest March in 2019 and 33 per cent higher than in March 2022. It was also the third consecutive month of record passenger numbers at the country’s biggest airport.

At Cork Airport, March has followed the trend set in January and February, with another impressive performance. Last weekend, Cork Airport surpassed 500,000 passengers in the year to date. As Munster’s busiest airport, Cork Airport is set to welcome a total of 2.5 million passengers over the course of the full year.
