Lufthansa resumes Cairo flights, British Airways stays away

Lufthansa resumed flying to Cairo Sunday following a 1-day suspension due to safety concerns. Meanwhile, British Airways continued with its 7-day suspension of flights to Cairo, and general Younes Elmasry, Egypt's minister of civil aviation, said he's frustrated that the airline suspended flights without consulting Egyptian authorities. Elmasry met Sunday with Geoffrey Adams, British ambassador to Egypt, and both said they would work together to resolve the situation as soon as possible. Adams apologised for not informing Egyptian authorities before British Airways announced it was suspending flights to and from Egypt for a week. The US warned citizens Friday about traveling to Egypt, saying terrorist groups including ISIS committed multiple deadly attacks. British authorities also warned against traveling to parts of Egypt. <br/>
