Fianna Fáil Councillor Pat Mc Mahon is commenting after Aer Lingus cancelled a flight from Shannon on Tusesday, using the aircraft for another service from Dublin instead.

Some of the passengers were flown to Dublin and onto London where they got a connecting flight to Boston.

A second incident involving the same aircraft happened yesterday but a replacement plane operated the Shannon to Boston service instead.

Aer Lingus have said that the fight was cancelled due to a technical issue but Councillor McMahon has been telling that he doesn't accept that excuse.
