LONDON (AA) - Holiday operator TUI Group said Sunday it canceled flights and booked holidays to the Greek island of Rhodes due to the ongoing wildfires.
"TUI has decided to cancel all flights and booked holidays to Rhodes for departures up to and incl. Tue, 25 July," Europe's largest holiday group said on Twitter.
It said they took the decision as the current situation in the southern part of the island "remains volatile and challenging."
