Sydney Airport to Welcome EgyptAir from 2027

[RooFlyer]

I've also flown MS domestically, and in and out of CAI internationally several times (not on MS). Honestly can't recall a problem - other than crowding in the terminal (not alone there).

Domestic meal was inedible, but service and flight was fine.

I asked my TA to ticket me home out of CAI on QR earlier this year but it was expensive! That was a surprise. Plus CAI-DOH no longer 'First' when you book business.

I've done lots of touring of Cairo on my own, as well as tours (that was an Intrepid Nile tour). Ubers work really well and are really cheap!

This was my ride from the airports to a hotel at the pyramids (from my TR):



Returning early from downtown, 35 mins and A$6.60 .

I haven't flown Egyptair since my first European trip when I was about 20 yo.
I had been working in Wales for a few months and took a cheap holiday in Tunisia.
I didn't use the return flight to the UK, flying on to Cairo with Tunis AIr instead.
I had planned to take the sleeper train to Karnak to see the temple at Luxor and the Valley of the Kings.
However the level of sexual harassment I was subject to in Cairo dissuaded me from that idea very quickly.
So flew there and back with Egyptair.
It was a horrific experience.
The aircraft was leased from Saudi Air and was falling apart.
There was exposed wiring visible in my armrest, and some oxygen masks hanging from the ceiling.
It was the one and only time I have been afraid of flying.
I trust things have improved.
