LH suspends Sinai flights

THE Lufthansa Group has
suspended commercial flight
operations to and from Egypt’s
Sinai Peninsula.
The precautionary action was
taken in view of the current
Sinai situation, the airline said
in a statement. “The Lufthansa
Group will co-ordinate all its
further actions in this regard
in close consultation with the
authorities. The action affects
two planned weekly flights to
and from Sharm el-Sheikh,
operated by Edelweiss and
Eurowings.”
The group said it was
working with governments’
foreign affairs departments
and the tour operators
involved, assisting customers
vacationing in the Sharm
el-Sheikh region and arranging
their return flights home.
Cairo continues to be served
by the group’s airlines
