Britain and Ireland earlier temporarily suspended flights to and from Sharm el-Sheikh after a Russian plane crashed 23 minutes after taking off from the resort last Saturday, killing all 224 people on board.
British airlines, easyJet and Monarch said they were planning a total of 15 flights on Friday to repatriate some of the 20,000 British tourists currently in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh after British government decision to suspend flights to the resort.
On top of its two scheduled flights from the resort on Friday, easyJet said it was planning eight more.
"The government has decided, in consultation with the airlines, that flights from Sharm to the UK will resume tomorrow," a spokeswoman for UK Prime Minister David Cameron said.
"The additional security measures will include permitting passengers to carry hand baggage only and transporting hold luggage separately."
Meanwhile, Belgian airline Jetair said Thursday it will send three planes to Egypt's Sharm el-Sheikh to repatriate tourists, but without their luggage...

- British and Belgian airlines will repatriate tourists currently in the Egyptian Red Sea resort of Sharm El Sheikh but only with hand luggage, after suspension of flights earlier amid fears that the Russian passenger jet crash last Saturday was caused by a bomb attack.

Les vols vers Charm El Cheikh interrompus jusqu'au 12 novembre: 702 Belges se trouvent encore sur place...
ReplyDeleteLes affaires étrangères déconseillent temporairement de se rendre à Charm El Cheikh, en Egypte. La sécurité aéroportuaire n'y est plus garantie depuis les suspicions d'attentat sur un avion russe au dessus du Sinaï. Conséquence: après Jet Air, c'est Thomas Cook qui annule tous ses vols vers la station balénaire jusqu'au 12 novembre, comme l'a expliqué Céline Praile dans le journal de 8h sur Bel RTL.
Jeudi soir, un avion de la compagnie en provenance de la station balnéaire a atterri à l'aéroport de Bruxelles. Un vol sans encombre, selon les passagers. Peut-être y a-t-il eu quelques mesures de sécurité supplémentaires, mais sans que cela soit vraiment flagrant.
La compagnie Thomas Cook attendait l'avis du minstère des affaires étrangères mais avait déjà pris des mesures pour renforcer la sécurité des passagers sur place. Depuis samedi, Thomas Cook ne survole plus le Sinai, réalise un double contrôle des bagages et limite l'accès à l'appareil aux passagers et à l'équipage..........rtl.be
