British Airways is to resume flights to Libya on May 1, despite the Foreign Office continuing to advice against non-essential travel to the country. The airline suspended its services to Tripoli, the Libyan capital, last February following the outbreak of civil war. Although hostilities officially ended in October, with NATO lifting its no-fly zone over the country, BA has spent last few months assessing the security risks of returning to the country.

BA will fly from Heathrow to Tripoli three times a week, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. Several other European airlines, including Alitalia, have already resumed flights to the city. air France will restart its services on March 27.
