Ronan dressed as an air stewardess called Colleen, wearing a green uniform and bouffant bob hairstyle, who spoke with a heavy Irish accent.
Included in the sketch are a reference to Aer Lingus being similar to "cunnilingus", a lot of mention of potatoes, dogs, bad Irish accents, Aran jumpers, and even Oscar Wilde.
Aer Lingus responded with a tweet not too dissimilar to what you might find on Donald Trump's timeline:
