The airline had cancelled 25 flights on Monday and Tuesday, adding to the numerous cancellations over the past three weeks.
Aer Lingus announced that it planned to operate its complete schedule from Wednesday onward.
Last week, members of the Irish Air Line Pilots’ Association (IALPA) suspended a work-to-rule that began at the end of June.
This development comes as pilots are set to vote on a 17.75% pay increase following a recommendation from the Labour Court aimed at resolving a long-standing pay dispute with Aer Lingus. The pay raises will be implemented over the period from 2022 to 2026.
IALPA will conduct several meetings with its members and will hold a ballot of pilots from Thursday for six days.
Aer Lingus welcomed the IALPA leadership’s decision to recommend the deal to its members.
“Aer Lingus welcomes the decision by IALPA to suspend industrial action,” the airline stated.
“Prior to this announcement, it was necessary to cancel some flights to minimize disruption to customers scheduled to travel up to and including July 16. All affected customers have now been contacted and re-accommodated where possible on alternative flights.
“All Aer Lingus regional flights (operated by Emerald Airlines) and Aer Lingus UK transatlantic flights to and from Manchester continue to operate. We plan to operate our full schedule from July 17. The most up-to-date, on-day flight information can be found on our flight status tool or mobile app.”
The pilots had initially sought a 24% pay increase, which they argued matched inflation since their last pay raise in 2019.
IALPA president Mark Tighe said last week: “It is not quite the inflation that we were discussing but we’re looking at, two years from now, pilots will be 19.2% better off than they were – which is some ways towards inflation. We’re recommending it because we believe it’s a deal that the pilots can hopefully accept.”
