Jet2 has issued a 'do not travel' warning to its customers heading to a Greek island. The airline has suspended flights to the Greek destination until tomorrow (Saturday, May 11).
Tourists jetting off to Skiathos have been told that they should not travel to the airport today (Friday, May 10). The move is down to 'weather disruption'.
Travellers have been warned they should return home and only go back to the airport three hours before the new departure time - which has been moved to tomorrow. Skiathos is located off the east coast of mainland Greece in the Aegean Sea.
