Lunchtime Live Does it matter that Aer Lingus isn't serving Irish Milk?
Lunchtime Live got an email in from a listener with an issue she noticed. Mary, whiule travelling on an Aer Lingus flight, noticed that the milk provided to her was not Irish and was in fact milk from Slovakia.
Aer Lingus confiremd to us that due to a temporary shortage of the Irish-produced milk, sticks an alternative will be used on a short-term basis.
Is this an insult to Irish Dairy producers, and should our state carrier only be using Irish goods?
Joining Andrea to discuss was Mary TurnerNoel Murphy – Chairperson of ICMSA Dairy Committee Eoghan Corry - Editor of Air & Travel magazine and Thomas Duffy - Dairy Farmer in Cavan
Aer Lingus statement: Due to an operational issue, our catering partner has experienced a temporary shortage of the Irish-produced milk sticks normally served on Aer Lingus flights. To ensure continuity of service, an alternative has been used on a short-term basis. Normal supply is expected to resume shortly.
