Travel firms Thomson and Thomas Cook have extended a suspension of flights to the Egyptian holiday resort of Sharm el-Sheikh until at least 23 March.

The UK government suspended flights to the Red Sea resort in November after the suspected bombing of a Russian passenger jet killed 224 people.

So-called Islamic State militants claimed responsibility for the attack.
Over 16,000 Britons stranded in the area were brought home on a series of rescue flights amid increased security.

No flights have operated between the UK and Sharm el-Sheikh since 17 November, and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office advises against all but essential travel using the resort's airport.
British Airways has said it will not operate flights to the Egyptian resort until after 13 February at the earliest, while Monarch services are currently suspended up to 24 January.

EasyJet has stopped services until 29 February, while Thomson and Thomas Cook this week both extended their suspension of services until 23 March.
