How can I rebook a flight with Aer Lingus?

For a direct booking without connecting flights, Manage Trip is the starting point for reviewing an offered replacement. A connected journey needs attention to the whole trip, not only the canceled flight. Use the assistance path indicated in the disruption notice when the website cannot resolve the connection. If a travel agency sold the ticket, involve that agency; reward bookings can also have their own servicing route. Decide whether the offered journey still meets your needs before accepting it. Check airports, dates, overnight connections and the arrival at your final destination. If you no longer wish to travel, review the refund options provided for your cancellation rather than treating a voucher as the only possible response. Keep the cancellation message and subsequent confirmation together. Availability must be checked in your actual reservation; this guidance does not promise a particular alternative flight.
