Thomas Cook extends Sharm el Sheikh holiday cancellations to October

Holiday company Thomas Cook extended its cancellation of holidays to the Egyptian resort of Sharm el Sheikh until Oct. 31, meaning the destination will have been closed to British arrivals for almost a year. Britain advised against flying to the airport last November after the suspected bombing of a Russian passenger jet in October 2015 killed 224 people shortly after it had taken off from Sharm el Sheikh airport. British tourists at the resort were evacuated after the crash.
