Travel advice – Egypt

The UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office advises against all but essential travel by air to or from Sharm el Sheikh airport.

As a precautionary measure, flights that were due to leave Sharm el Sheikh destined for the UK on the evening of Wednesday 4 November will be delayed so that additional security checks can be made.  UK consular staff have been deployed to Sharm el Sheikh to help British nationals; if you’re a British national affected by this, you should contact your airline or tour operator.
