British Airways has suspended all flights to Pakistan indefinitely after a deadly terrorist attack there earlier this week.
The carrier normally operates six flights a week between London and the Pakistani capital Islamabad where a hotel bombing on Saturday killed 53 people and injured more than 250, including six British citizens.
A BA spokesman said flights would be suspended indefinitely because of the turmoil in Pakistan.
"We will not compromise on the safety of our customers, staff or planes," he said.
