Just 8 flights to leave Sharm for Britain Friday
Tourists queue up at check-in counters
Cairo - AFP
Only eight out of 29 planned flights to Britain will leave Sharm el-Sheikh on Friday to repatriate stranded tourists, Egypt's civil aviation minister said, blaming luggage restrictions for the reduction.
Hossam Kamal said that a requirement that passengers take only their hand luggage with them on the resumed flights had forced the move as Sharm el-Sheikh airport could not accommodate more than 120 tonnes of check-in baggage left behind.
