We’re supposed to fly 15th August, been given the opportunity to amend the flights. But want them cancelled and a refund TBH.

I too am booked with Aer lingus DUB-MCO

I've been keeping an eye on their website for ages.

They currently only operate flights to USA -chicago, New York (JFK) and Boston.

International travel is being reviewed by the irish govt on 20th July. Currently it is essential travel only FROM IRELAND and an advisory not to travel.

THE USA have extended their emergency travel procedures for another 60 days, meaning you won't get in without a USA passport!

From what I have seen so far with Aer Lingus, a pattern emerges.

You will be given the FIRST OPTION of changing your flights (up to a certain date) with no change fees BUT there may be a fare difference to pay ans the cost on the internet you see is sometimes LESS than what they want to charge you! Some Dibbers reported this!

If you don't 'bite', Then there will be a SECOND OPTION some time later when they will email you with an offer of a voucher (valid for 5 years). They won't mention that your flight is cancelled at this point, nor will they mention you can request a refund IF they tell you the flight is cancelled.

They were offering an additional 10% incentive for certain dates (now deleted). I decided to take this option before it expired.

The THIRD OPTION is to await notification of cancellation from them. Usually within 14 days of outbound trip BUT some have been as close as 4 days from the date of trip.


IF you want to check your flight is cancelled, you can also call them or go on their twitter page.

There is a form to fill out BUT make sure its the correct one.
ONE is for you cancelling

The SECOND is for them cancelling.
This is the one you want for a full refund when they tell you flight cancelled.


Currently they seem to be dealing with July/August scheduled flights.

Hope this helps

I went to Manage my bookings on the Aer Lingus page. I can manage my flight to Dublin and back from Dublin but not the Orlando part.

I therefore went to see if I could book tickets n the Orlando flight. I couldn't as it showed no flights operating. Therefore I am presuming that this is cancelled.
