Sligo is starting to feel the impact of the impending strike by Aer Lingus pilots.
The airline and the pilots union IALPA will attend separate meetings at the Labour Court today.
Its the latest attempt to find agreement on a pay dispute which threatens the travel plans of thousands of Aer Lingus passengers.
Strike action is currently planned, with a work to rule due to start tomorrow, and an eight hour work stoppage on Saturday as it stands.
The Aer Lingus flight from Ireland West Airport in Knock to London Heathrow this Saturday has also been cancelled as a result.
Anthony Gray, local restauranteur in Sligo says that his business is already starting to be affected by the planned industrial action.
He says the hospitality sector is already on its knees and that this disruption at the height of summer is far from ideal.
