DUBAI: The pilot of an easyJet flight from Gatwick in the UK to Rhodes told passengers that traveling to the island was a “bad idea” and suggested they got off the flight, according to media reports.

Wildfires have been raging across Greece for a week now, sparking what the country’s officials have described as the biggest evacuation in Greek history.

At least 19,000 people have been evacuated from the affected areas, including Rhodes.

Many of those evacuated are tourists who have found themselves stranded at airports and temporary shelters.
