Celtic have cancelled the club’s official supporters flight after concerns surrounding the safety of fans in Turkey.
It follows the downing of a Russian jet on the Turkey-Syria border, some 500 miles away from Istanbul – which is home to Fenerbahce.
Despite the distance between the Syrian border and the North Western city, Celtic are taking no risks ahead of their final group stage game in the Europa League on December 10th.
Fans travelling to Istanbul will have already decreased following the Hoops exit from the competition was confirmed after Thursday’s 2-1 loss to Ajax.

Around 2,000 Celtic fans were expected to travel to the game, but that number is likely to be significantly less.
Those still travelling to the game will be advised about the best protocol ahead of the game.
A club spokesman said the following on the matter, as quoted by the Daily Mail.
We are in close liaison with the British Embassy and Foreign and Commonwealth Office and will provide appropriate further advice next week.
