DUBLIN (Reuters) - Ryanair's Irish pilots are planning to hold two more one-day strikes on July 20 and July 24, a spokesman for the IALPA/FORSA union told Reuters on Thursday.

Around 30 of Ryanair's 2,300 flights were cancelled on Thursday as around 100 of the airline's Irish pilots held their first-ever strike.
