Hundreds of Jewish passengers due to fly from the UK to Israel for Succot look set to be stranded after Monarch Airlines went into administration early this morning.

The carrier, which has run regular flights from London Luton and Manchester airport to Israel, announced the cancellation of all flights at around 4am this morning.

An announcement on the airline’s website informed customers that “we are sorry to inform you that, as of 2 October 2017, all future holidays and flights provided by these companies have been cancelled and are no longer operating.”
