Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if he will hold discussions with representatives of airlines on ensuring that the costs of tickets for repatriation flights are comparable with the price of tickets originally paid by passengers.

The Department is working to support the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, who are leading the efforts to ensure that British tourists can return home from across the Globe.

The Government is working closely with the aviation sector, and we welcome continued efforts by airlines to ensure that passengers can return to the UK.

Whilst ticket pricing remains a commercial matter for the airlines, we are monitoring the situation closely.
