Thomas Cook has said it is aiming to restart flights and holidays to Tunisia on February 14, 2016.

State of emergency ongoing

The tour operator, like many others, cancelled its programme for the rest of the summer in the wake of the deadly terrorist attack in the country at the end of June.

Cook originally cancelled its programme up until the end of October, with customers able to amend or cancel free of charge.

This has now been extended to February 13, 2016.

“The Foreign & Commonwealth Office has confirmed that the state of emergency in Tunisia had been extended by a further two months from 31 July 2015.  Accordingly, the FCO has updated its advice, which counsels against all but essential travel to the country,” the company said in a statement.
