Jet2 axe Tunisia route over violence
19.01.11
Jet2 has axed all of its scheduled flights to Tunisia from Leeds Bradford Airport over the violence in the north African country. The airline said in a statement it would not run any of its planned flights, due to take off in April, after passengers raised concerns over the continued bloodshed and political situation.
The airline said it was in the process of contacting passengers to organise alternative arrangements. A spokesman said: ‘Despite sales to Tunisia being very strong we have taken the decision to cancel services to Tunisia for summer 2011. The safety of our customers is our number one priority and we also do not want them to face the stressful uncertainty over whether their holiday will go ahead as planned. We are, therefore, giving them the opportunity to plan an alternative holiday now.’
