The controllers refused to provide cover for a colleague who called in sick.

One overnight arrival along with five early morning departures were delayed as a result of the action, which is the second at the airport in the last 48 hours.

The air traffic controllers are refusing to work overtime in a dispute with the Irish Aviation Authority over staffing levels.

Both sides are due to meet at the Labour Relations Commission again on Tuesday.
