British Airways has cancelled flights to the US and Saudi Arabia amid fears terrorists may be targeting them. The airline has cancelled flights BA223 to Washington DC on Sunday and BA263 to Riyadh on Monday.
The move follows the cancellation of a number of US flights by BA and Air France at the start of February.
At the time, The US Department of Homeland Security said that it remained "concerned about al-Qaeda's desire to target international aviation".
