EasyJet to fly to Tunisia for the first time since 2015 Sousse massacre
EasyJet is resuming flights to Tunisia for the first time since the 2015 Sousse massacre. The airline announced it will operate two flights a week from Gatwick to the beach resort of Enfidha, starting on May 2, 2020. UK airlines stopped flying to Tunisia when the Foreign and Commonwealth Office advised against all but essential visits, following the June 2015 Sousse attack in which 30 Britons were killed. The guidance was withdrawn for the majority of the North African country in July 2017. Thomas Cook resumed package holidays there for UK customers in February last year. EasyJet’s flights to Enfidha have been made possible by its acquisition of the collapsed travel firm’s take-off and landing slots at Gatwick. Next summer will also see easyJet fly to Tirana in Albania, from the UK, for the first time.<br/>
