    Fantastic, thought I had dodged the Ryanair strikes, oh well! Will be an interesting one with massive delays as it’s a full 24hr nationwide stoppage.

    I avoided this one, I hope it doesn’t last any longer than 24hrs as we’re due to fly to Rome on the 24th.

    Problem for me is I’m connecting in the UK with FR, so it’ll be fine to get to STN (they’ll transfer us or whatever) but then I’ll have to find a new flight to DUB, as well as an extra night in Italy with the cost of a hotel etc. I’m worried flights to DUB be pricey for the group coming back since it’ll be the day of - can’t book now as we’re unsure of the transfer flights, or if it’ll even go ahead!

    I’m not too smart when it comes to aviation terms what is FR? I presume STN is standstead? I don’t think there’s any issues with British ATC at the moment is there?

    I wonder if my flight to Rome from Dublin on the 24th will be affected by the 24hr strike on the 21st-22nd, maybe there will be delays of some sort????
