EasyJet has cancelled three return flights between the UK and Cyprus on Monday after Iranian strikes hit the RAF Akrotiri base on the island overnight.
The budget airline confirmed that services between the UK and the coastal airports of Paphos and Larnaca will not operate on March 2, with Tuesday’s flights currently still scheduled to run.
An easyJet spokesperson told the Express: “Due to the events overnight affecting the RAF base in Akrotiri in Cyprus, as a precaution, three return flights between Paphos and Larnaca and the UK today will not be operating.”
The airline urged affected travellers to monitor its flight tracker for the latest updates.
