TUI cancels further flights as Foreign Office issues travel update

Holiday company TUI has announced more flight cancellations due to ongoing unrest in Sri Lanka. In recent months, the country has faced shortages in food and fuel, leaving residents protesting in the street and resulting in violence with police.

The UK's Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) has now advised against all essential travel to Sri Lanka. Therefore, more holidays and flights are being axed by TUI.

The Liverpool Echo reported that TUI had originally cancelled holidays inclusive of the end of June. It has now been confirmed by TUI that the cancellations will continue throughout July.
