    Does Aer Lingus have cops on transatlantic flights?
    Or is it used on any Irish or European flights?

    2 minutes on wikipedia
    Ireland
    Ireland does not have a dedicated sky marshal agency, although there is a National Civil Aviation Security Committee (NCASC). Limited capabilities are provided by the Garda Síochána Emergency Response Unit (ERU), the national police armed tactical unit, and backup may be provided by the counter-terrorism Garda Special Detective Unit (SDU) and the Army Ranger Wing (ARW) special forces unit in certain situations.[13][14] The Irish government allows armed flight marshals from the United Kingdom, United States, Canada, Israel, Australia and specific European Union (EU) countries onboard international flights landing or destined for those countries in Irish airspace, once they are informed of their presence beforehand. Weapons carried by an air marshal in Ireland include a concealed handgun, taser, knife and pepper spray.[15]

    Well considering they start off by saying there are no air marshalls, then go onto say what weapons Irish air marshalls carry, I'd think not.... :p

    Pedantically, "Weapons carried by an air marshal in Ireland". It doesn't say Irish air marshal at all, but Ireland permits other countries air marshals.

    Clear now?

    You are indeed correct, I'll blame it on being night-time
