The ongoing heat wave in Britain may also be contributing to the fall in
visitors to Egypt. According to Steve Endacott, the chief executive of On
Holiday Group, which sells flights, beach holidays and city breaks, the hot
weather has led to a fall in bookings for overseas holidays of more than 20
per cent.
The Foreign Office issued its advisory two weeks ago, forcing tour operators
to cancel hundreds of trips to destinations including Luxor, Cairo and
Alexandria. Affected holidaymakers are entitled to a full refund.
Independent travellers to mainland Egypt can go ahead with their trip, should
they wish to do so, but may face difficulty obtaining adequate insurance.
Airlines and hotels are not legally required to offer a refund, but most
carriers may be willing to let fliers postpone their trips.
Should anyone due to visit one of the Red Sea resorts wish to cancel their
trip, they will not be able to do so free of charge.
