An online travel agent says it will add Israel to its list of destinations after a complaint from a customer who was told he couldn't book a holiday there.

Surrey-based Travel Republic, which has two million clients a year, offers flights and hotels in beach resorts across the world, including Egypt, Jordan and the United Arab Emirates.

But when grandfather Michael Dashwood tried to book a trip to Israel to visit his family, he was told "to go to somebody else", he said.

Mr Dashwood, from north London, contacted the JC, who raised the issue with Travel Republic.
