Tui Airways passengers told to take their own food and drink on flights

Due to staff shortages, passengers on many flights will have to take their own food and drink.

The company said on Friday that short and mid-haul flights would be affected.

Due to staff shortages, limited food and drinks services may be available on board.

Customers may bring their own food and drinks, but no alcohol is allowed. After you have passed through security, any soft drinks over 100ml will need to be purchased.

Long-haul flights to Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Mexico, and St Lucia are unaffected by the disruption. Meal services on these flights will operate as usual.

The operator said that they are continuously monitoring the situation and working closely with their suppliers to limit the impact on the onboard service for their customers. We're very sorry for any disruptions.
