Dozens of airline pilots have lined up outside Leinster House to warn of thousands of job losses in their sector
The pilots are asking why the Irish government is taking a different approach to antigen testing than other European states.
IALPA has called on the Irish government to roll out antigen testing at our airports and to reopen air travel in early July in line with other EU countries.
The union president says the divergent approach Ireland is taking to the rest of Europe is "unacceptable".
