Irish travellers were facing further disruption on Tuesday as pilots at German airline Lufthansa went on strike again.
The company cancelled 816 short-haul flights scheduled for Tuesday, including four set to depart from Dublin Airport.
The walkout by the Cockpit union is to be followed on Wednesday by a strike hitting both short-haul and long-haul services. Lufthansa has cancelled 890 of its flights scheduled for Wednesday.
The strikes follow four consecutive days of walkouts last week. Lufthansa and Cockpit are far apart in a pay dispute which has dragged on for more than two years.
The airline failed to persuade a Munich court to issue an injunction blocking the latest strike. The company said around 82,000 passengers would be affected by Tuesday's walkout, and 98,000 by the walkout on Wednesday. – PA
