Episode Details

Travel expert Simon Calder advises UK holidaymakers on navigating Middle East tensions, with UK airlines cutting flights and transit hubs like Oman, Qatar, and UAE remaining crucial. Despite drone incidents near Dubai, operations resumed, but UK Foreign Office warns against travel to certain places. Calder notes low risk in Turkey and Cyprus, but jet fuel prices may increase holiday costs. If flights are canceled, UK air passenger rights protect travelers. Calder predicts Foreign Office restrictions will lift soon, allowing travel to resume. For upcoming trips, monitor updates; for imminent travel, be aware of insurance coverage. Calder urges keeping bookings open to avoid high rebooking fees.
