All bar one Aer Lingus flights today including seven from the mid west are cancelled – while Ryanair has cancellated its services until Wednesday lunchtime.

It comes ahead of a video conference later involving European Transport Ministers to discuss the ash crisis.

Airlines have been calling for a review of no-fly bans after conducting test flights at the weekend without any apparent problems from Iceland’s ash cloud.
