The short answer
For a group trip, prepare a shared itinerary, passenger count and decision deadline. Ask the provider whether an ordinary booking or a group arrangement fits the trip, and obtain the payment and change conditions in writing.

Aer Lingus group travel: define the shared itinerary
List the outbound and return dates, departure airports, destination and acceptable connections. Say whether everyone must be on the same flights. If some travelers return early or start from a different city, identify those exceptions before asking for a price.
Ask about the commitments
A group quote should explain what is held, for how long, and what payment secures it. Ask about deposit deadlines, balance dates, passenger-name deadlines and how reductions are handled. Do not collect non-refundable money from travelers based only on an informal estimate.
Use a single trip coordinator
Keep one agreed itinerary and one list of unresolved questions. Collect only the passenger information the provider actually needs and use an appropriate secure channel. Give the group written instructions about baggage and when to arrive.
Where to start
Aer Lingus has a dedicated group-booking route. You can compare that with independent planning assistance. Ask who will issue the tickets and who the coordinator should contact if one traveler needs a later change.
Common questions
Is a group fare always cheaper?
No. Compare total price, payment terms and flexibility; do not assume a discount.
Can a group change be made online?
Aer Lingus directs group-booking changes to contact support.
Should everyone call separately?
A named coordinator can reduce conflicting requests. Follow the ticket provider’s process for individual changes.
