Come prepared if you plan to fly
We recommend that customers bring sufficient face coverings for the duration of their journey. Face coverings can be reusable cloth masks or disposable masks. Wearing of face coverings is mandatory while boarding and for the duration of the flight. Customers who are unable to keep a face covering in place, including children, are exempt from the mandatory application of the policy.
We recommend that customers consider wearing a face covering from the time of entry into the departure airport.
Our cabin crew will also be wearing suitable face coverings during flight.
The wearing of a face covering will be mandatory until August 31, 2020.

I'd rather see safe countries, Austria, Germany, Czech Republic which handled things well with low rates and excellent healthcare.
Italy, Spain, France I wouldn't be heading there anytime soon

Given that they've continued flying to the UK throughout, I don't think the competence of a country's response to the outbreak is the predominant factor in determining where Aer Lingus will fly...
