TUI cancels more Sri Lanka trips as Brits are warned not to visit due to ongoing political instability

TUI have confirmed further cancellations for Sri Lanka holidays as the political climate remains unstable.

The latest round of cancelled trips - which has been happening since May of this year - comes as the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office warning to Brits planning to travel to Sri Lanka remains in place. The Foreign Office said that the country should be avoided when possible.

They have, however, clarified that the advice does not apply to airside transit through Sri Lanka’s international airport, so those on connecting flights can travel as normal, reports the Mirror. TUI have confirmed that they will still run transiting flights through the airport.
