@deniscoakley11 @EmployRightsIE @HMcEntee It doesn't seem as though the Irish gov/embassy are doing much in the way of communicating with Emirates as to who is trying to leave & trying to guarantee Irish citizens are prioritised on Dublin flights. Hopefully people start realising just to take matters into their own hands
English

@deniscoakley11 @EmployRightsIE @HMcEntee 100%! The whole thing is a shambles! We had been told not to go to airport unless contacted by the airline... I'd be still be there waiting had i not taken the chance. There was hardly any Irish on the flight yesterday it seems...it was a free-for-all, fire come, first served!
English

@deniscoakley11 @EmployRightsIE @HMcEntee Just to add, I had a cancelled ticket from Sat & they changed my ticket for yesterday's flight FOC. People from other countries with tickets to other destinations also managed to get tickets for Dub flight (not sure if they had to pay). It can't be booked through Emirates website
English

@deniscoakley11 @EmployRightsIE @HMcEntee Don't trust information been given on the phone. Nobody on the helplines seem to know what's going on! I'd take my chances and go to the airport if I were him. Anyway, just trying to help, as there's so much confusion and lack of clear info being given! Hopefully he gets sorted

@deniscoakley11 @EmployRightsIE @HMcEntee Denis, I got out yesterday. DXB airport Flight info: dubaiairports.ae/flight-status
Next flight to Dub is 7. 05am tomorrow. Don't wait to be called by Emirates. Tell your son go to airport, check-in area 3 & get them to change his cancelled ticket at desk.
Sorry but Helen hasn't a clue!
English

@EmployRightsIE @HMcEntee Idiot @EmployRightsIE
I have a son trying to get back from Dubai whose flight has now been cancelled three times (including today and tomorrow). All help and updates are greatly appreciated from Helen and Dept in a situation that changes hourly. All anyone can do is their best

@HMcEntee @dfatirl I got out yesterday. People should use the DXB airport website for flight info.

Encouraging citizens who have queries or wish to travel home to contact the Consular Crisis team on +353 1 4082000.
Citizens in the region are encouraged to register their presence at: citizensregistration.dfa.ie
Please note that this is not a register of those who want to leave.

@HMcEntee @dfatirl No mention of the 12 hour delays at the Omani border??
It's honestly not a viable/safe route for vulnerable people. Better chance getting out from Dubai.
I'd be willing to bet the "consular crisis team" haven't sorted out a flight for anyone! It's every man for himself out there.

@donalgreene @HMcEntee Just to add, I had a cancelled ticket from Sat and they changed my ticket for yesterday's flight FOC. People from other countries with tickets to other destinations also managed to get tickets for Dub flight (not sure if they were charged). Spread the word to other Irish you meet

@donalgreene @HMcEntee I got out yesterday Donal. Had been stuck there since Sat. Use the DXB airport website for flight info.

@IrelandEmbUAE @IEAmbUAE Looking forward to the next diplomatic vlog release. These videos are extremely helpful for people stranded in Dubai with young families at home worried and scared. So re-assuring. Thank you so much. You're doing an excellent job. As is the UAE's missile defence system. Just wow!
English


@HMcEntee What about people stranded in Dubai specifically? Is there any semblance of a provisional alternative plan being put together to get those people (of which I am one) back to Ireland if Dubai Airport / Middle East airspace remains closed?
English

@OisinLambe @hughes_tra54632 @IrelandEmbUAE I don't normally waste my time replying to c*nts on this cesspit platform Oisín, but just wanted to let you know, in case you don't already, you're only a smart arse c*nt! Fuck off!
English

@hughes_tra54632 @IrelandEmbUAE IF NECESSARY.....
At this point it is not necessary to contact people individually. If you have circumstances that require more urgent assistance they advised you to contact them.

@EmiratesSupport @emirates Hi @EmiratesSupport any indication if there will be flights leaving for Dublin tomorrow?
I was due to be on EK163 on Saturday 28th at 14:35. Will I be rebooked by Emirates or do I need to try rebook my own flight?

I appreciate this is an unprecedented situation but the lack of clear instruction and communication is disappointing and frustrating.
Please advise what people should do.

@EmiratesSupport Hi @EmiratesSupport. If we booked direct with Emirate, do we need to rebook new flights ourselves or are Emirates going to book people back onto alternative flights?
I was due to be on flight EK163 to Dublin on Saturday at 14.35.
I have sent you an email but no response.

@8_MAC_7 @EwanMacKenna @ShaneLowryGolf @LewisHamilton @anthonyjoshua Stop with the virtue signalling! Human rights issues exist in every country the world, not just Saudi, so it's a flawed argument. Also from a Lowry perspective, his net worth is a lot less than the other 3 mentioned & he's got a family to look out for long term so he's dead right
