Aer Lingus has said it now looks unlikely that it will take delivery of its first Airbus A321XLR as planned, because talks aimed at ending a pay dispute with pilots have ended without agreement.

The Labour Court is scheduled to hear the dispute between the airline and the pilot's union IALPA on Monday.

"Aer Lingus met with IALPA representatives again this week to continue to explore if an agreement on pay could be reached in advance of the Labour Court hearing on 22nd April, in order to secure the delivery of the inaugural A321XLR aircraft for Aer Lingus," the airline said in a statement.
