Aer Lingus is to halve the working hours and pay of staff due to reductions in capacity and passenger travel due to the Covid-19 virus

In a bulletin to staff, the airline stated: "The sharp and swift global decline in demand for air travel is without precedent."

It added: "The response we are communicating today has been designed to safeguard the financial position of the business, to enable us operate our reduced schedule and the additional activities that arise in responding to the crisis. The Fórsa trade union official Ashley Connolly said that given the impact of the public health crisis on the airline industry, the union was relieved that the airline had been able to keep everyone in a job.

In a statement, the DAA confirmed that airline passenger traffic has fallen "dramatically" here and across the world due to the pandemic.
