BBC Breakfast are reporting the 06.45am plane from Ercan to Istanbul has been hijacked. It has landed in Antalya and all but 9 passengers and some of the crew remain on board. The majority of passengers managed to escape by opening the rear door of the plane and jumping onto the tarmac.

Yes heard that on BBC News as well this morning and have just been reading about it on the internet. Apparently the hijackers were University students (so the reports say anyway)

Another reason to fly via Larnaca? Not that there is any guarantee that this won't happen wherever you travel these days. Does anyone know if the flight was due to continue on to Stansted?
