The U.K. has lifted its ban of onboard large
electronic devices on inbound international flights for "the vast
majority" of carriers operating out of Turkish airports, as well as
flights from Tunis, Tunisia. The U.K. government last week lifted the ban for
Antalya, Bodrum, Istanbul Sabiha Gokcen and Izmir airports in Turkey and
Tunis-Carthage International. Earlier in the summer, it lifted the ban on
Turkish Airlines and Pegasus flights from both Ataturk and Sabiha Gokcen in
Istanbul. The original
ban included six countries—Egypt, Turkey, Tunisia, Jordan, Lebanon and
Saudi Arabia—and will be lifted at the remaining airports on a case-by-case
basis, according to the Department for Transport.
