One of the lads at work noticed this and bought 1st class return flights to New York for him and his girlfriend for €300 odd in total. Regular retail price for the two would have been nearly €7000!

Now Aer Lingus have the cheek to cancel the booking on him! Fuck them - if you cancel a flight with an airline do they give you any back? Hell no. Aer Lingus needs to tbe taken to the cleaners for this one.

This email is to notify you of cancellation of your booking and to advise no funds will be deducted from your account

I really don't see how anyone can expect an airline to honour a €5 plane ticket even if it is a mistake.

My state was founded by Batman. Your opinion is invalid.

That really sucks...

Newegg, Amazon, ... they all do that kind of shit too. They all screw the consumer, but we keep going back for more...

Truth In Advertising laws, that's how. It's the airlines mistake, not the customers. They should be bound to what they posted. That should be a good lesson to be more careful with the way they run things.
