An easyJet pilot warned tourists flying to Rhodes, Greece on Monday that it was a "terrible idea" moments before taking off, according to a report by the BBC's Welsh-language news program Newyddion. "I don't know why you're traveling, but if you're traveling for recreational reasons, I suggest it's a bad idea." In a later statement on Monday, the company said it is offering its customers two repatriation flights from Rhodes to London.
