I don't mean his visit I mean was the bomb going off in sharm a mistake? If Russians have been said to be the target then why was it not detonated there... not that it should have, it just seems an odd place.

I doubt it was a mistake, it might have detonated early though. They obviously made it easy for them at Sharm, its win win for the terrorists a plane load of Russians killed, point made, and Egyptian tourism in disarray just like Tunisia.

Passengers may be flown back without their luggage which would follow on at a later date

it seems that ww3 is more of a reality now, than was two years ago, putin threatens to use nukes on isis, if the syrian leader agrees, he could use them in the sinai if Sisi let russian jets into his country, egypt is moving away from american influence,

Nobody say the N word!..... :(

Yes passengers Fly back Tomorrow

the funny thing is that, the battlefield game franchise has just predicted the ww3 scenario in the last five years, a few years ago in china the gang of 4 tried to stage a coup to over throw the leader of china, in iran the same thing happend with cia help, but both failed,

10 easyjet flights were due to leave... only 2 are.

EasyJet has put out yet another statement, which also lists which of its scheduled ten flights for today will fly from Sharm el-Sheikh, and which will not:

Two flights will be departing from Sharm el Sheikh shortly which are as follows:

KLM also only allowing hand luggage on flights to Cairo,I must admit some passengers are pissing me off moaning about not getting back when they want,do they not realise this is for their safety? there must be something going on preventing air travel.

Yes Easy Jet
are halted.

There is a Possible Bomb on a UK Plane


But the People in the Hot Sun Moaning (On Live TV)
are saying they want to fly now.
They seem to be happy to fly.
No Care about a Bomb?

Of course they care but the stress must be unbearable, they'll just want to be back home to normality :(

Rather the stress Kizzy than being blown up and never getting home.

I can see both sides, I would hate being stuck, when I am ready to come home I am ready and I would be very twitchy by now, people might be running out of money as well people who travelled independently so have no tour operator to turn to for advice, on the other hand I'd like to come home in one piece! It's at moments like this travel insurance is a life saver.

I know, catch 22 I can't imagine it! talk about nightmare scenario :/

Yep and I bet they're all off to Blackpool next year!

The way things are going we will all be staycationing as all countries will carry a travel advisory.

Now Russia has Halted all Flights

scary times that we live in.

One of my mums friends is stuck there and she's been moved to a 5* hotel whilst she waits to get back, obviously she's hating it

'Apparently on 23 August a Thomson jet had a near miss with a missile within a 1,000 feet of it near Sharm el Sheik. Today we know about it!'
