German airline group Lufthansa said its Eurowings and Edelweiss units are halting flights to Sharm El-Sheikh for the time being as a precautionary measure given the situation in Sinai. Britain said on Thursday there was a significant possibility that Islamic State's Egyptian affiliate was behind a suspected bomb attack on a Russian airliner that killed 224 people in the Sinai Peninsula and banned flights to and from Sharm El-Sheikh while airport security measures are improved. Lufthansa said that Edelweiss and Eurowings, its newly expanded low-cost carrier, had been planning to fly to Sharm twice a week. It will now work with the foreign office and tour operators on bringing passengers back from Sharm El-Sheikh. http://english.ahram.org.eg/News/162796.aspx
