Red Sea Holidays boss Peter Kearns has called for an immediate review of the ban on UK flights to Sharm el Sheikh.

Going that extra mile (literally)

It comes after Prime Minister Theresa May flew direct to the Red Sea resort at the weekend for an EU Brexit summit.


UK flights to Sharm were suspended after a Russian airliner was blown out the sky in October 2015 shortly after taking off from Sharm. All 224 people on board were killed.
