Recommendations for Canadians contemplating travel to Turkey :
We do not encourage Canadians to travel to Mersin and Adana in Turkey until the multi-national evacuations from Lebanon are completed. There are difficulties in finding hotel accommodations and priority is being given to evacuation flights which are causing long delays for other commercial flights. At this time, we are unable to facilitate access for family members who decide to travel to Turkey to greet their loved ones. For advice on travel to Turkey, see our Travel Report.
