British Airways (BA) said it is still assessing the security risks of flying to Libya's capital Tripoli and will not resume operations before the NATO no-fly zone is lifted.
The British flag-carrier said it plans to begin a review of the security risks of flying to the capital, Tripoli, but has no date to restart flights.
"We will be looking at opportunities to resume our operations when the no-fly zone, which currently bars commercial operations and only allows limited charter flights for specific purposes, is lifted," BA's international risk advisor William Sandover told Reuters.
"The detail of this review will get underway once the security situation on the ground and in the air becomes clearer."
IAG-owned BA suspended its daily flight to Tripoli from London's Heathrow airport in February. In June BA said it hoped to resume its Libyan services at the end of October but this now looks unlikely.
