    But have you tried booking? My EasyJet app shows the destination, but when I try to book gives "NO FLIGHTS".

    All the flights I've seen recently have been via Istanbul, I've not seen direct flights.

    Only Monarch flies there.
    Last I heard, they have extended their cancellation on flights there until Feb, has that changed?
    Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.

    Nope. Easyjet fly to both Sharm and Hurghada.

    Try booking a flight to Sharm. There aren't any.

    I never said there was NOW. I said that my friends had booked flights with Easyjet for their current holiday in Sharm.
    You said that Easyjet didn't fly to Sharm..

    No UK airlines have flown to Sharm since the FCO advisory was put in place.

    Sorry but I agree with leylandsunaddict. No UK flights have flown to or from Sharm since the 17th November. To Hurghada and other places in Egypt yes, but Sharm no.

    Maybe they flew by an indirect route via Cairo?

    Prices are good with Turkish airlines via Istanbul at the moment.

    Bit of a long layover on certain flights though.

    Easy jet DO NOT fly to Sharm at this time and haven't flown to Sharm since November and won't fly again until at least the end of February.

    So, do tell, if there aren't any Easyjet flights NOW how did your friends get there on 23rd December and how are they going to get home?
