Easyjet cancels all flights to Sharm el-Sheikh until January

Easyjet, who along with other airlines had cancelled all flights to Sharm el-Sheikh up to this week, said today that all flights to and from the Egyptian resort would be cancelled until 6 January.

‘We are sorry for the inconvenience this will obviously cause, but we hope that being clear with all our customers at this point helps you to manage your plans with more certainty,’ it said on its website.

‘The situation is beyond our control and passenger safety will always be our number one priority.’

Customers who are currently in Sharm el-Sheikh and want to travel back to UK have been asked to contact Easyjet’s customer service team, whereas those who have booked affected flights can choose a different destination, receive a full refund or get a flight voucher for future travel, Easyjet said.
