Replacement flights have been announced for those travelling to and from George Best Belfast City Airport with Aer Lingus.
It comes after Stobart Air ceased operations early on Saturday, June 12, which led to the cancellation of regional Aer Lingus flights that had been operated by the airline.
This impacted flights to and from Leeds Bradford, Edinburgh, Exeter, Manchester, East Midlands, and Birmingham.
The Aer Lingus service to London Heathrow remains unaffected.
However, the Irish airline has announced replacement flights for many of the routes to and from Belfast City Airport, some of which will be operated by BA City Flyer.
A spokesperson for Aer Lingus said: "Aer Lingus Regional had been operated by Stobart Air under a franchise agreement. Late on the evening of 11th June, Stobart Air notified Aer Lingus that it was ceasing operations with immediate effect.
"Of the twelve routes immediately impacted by Stobart Air’s decision to cease trading, Aer Lingus will operate five routes and for at least the next week BA City Flyer will operate two. Alternative operations for the outstanding routes are still being determined.
"All impacted customers are being contacted directly and offered details of an alternative flight where feasible. All impacted customers also have the option of a full refund.
