Flights resume to Istanbul airport as Britons told security situation 'remains volatile'
Some flights are resuming to and from Turkey as Britons are told the security situation "remains potentially volatile". The attempted coup which saw gunfire and explosions in Ankara and Istanbul and reports of shooting near the tourist resort of Marmaris prompted British Airways to cancelled all flights to and from the country on Saturday. However, last night a BA spokesman said: "We'll be flying a reduced schedule to Turkey (Sunday July 17), however these flights may be subject to some delays."
We continue to keep our flights to Turkey under review and we recommend that customers check ba.com for the latest information.

Thomas Cook, which offers holidays to places such as Marmaris, Bodrum and Antalya, had been advising customers to "stay in their hotels until further notice". But a later statement from the company said: "Our flight and holiday programme is operating as normal and our staff on the ground in resort tell us that everything is calm and customers are enjoying their holidays." An easyJet spokeswoman said the airline did not expect any changes to its schedule, while Turkish Airlines advised passengers to check the latest flight information due to cancellations. Thomson and First Choice flights to Dalaman, Antalya and Izmir are operating as normal. The Foreign Office said that although the situation in Turkey "appears to be calming", the security situation "remains potentially volatile".
The coastal resorts do not appear to be significantly affected at present. You should check with your airline or tour operator before travelling to the airport. Continue to exercise vigilance in resort areas.
