TUI has announced further cancellations for holidays to Sri Lanka, due to ongoing civil unrest in the popular hotspot.
Last month Sri Lanka declared a state of emergency as the country faces a crippling economic crisis with shortages including food, medicine, fuel and power. As a result there have been protests across the nation, including protestors who have stormed government buildings.
The Foreign Office is advising against all but essential travel to Sri Lanka "due to the impact of the current economic crisis" although it adds that the advice "does not apply to airside transit through Sri Lanka’s international airport".
