Thomas Cook removes Egypt hotel guests after couple dies
British tour operator Thomas Cook said it is removing all its customers from a hotel in Egypt after a UK couple staying there died in unexplained circumstances and other guests fell ill.
The company said late Thursday it was unclear what caused the deaths of the Britons, reportedly in their 60s, who had been staying at the plush Steigenberger Aqua Magic Hotel in the Red Sea resort of Hurghada.
The tour operator said all of its other customers at the Steigenberger -- reportedly 301, according to the BBC -- had the choice of relocating to another hotel in Hurghada or returning home.
