Top tips for finding a cheap flight out of the United Kingdom

  • Egypt has several airports that provide onward connections to other destinations in the country. Cairo is the main hub offering flight connections to the rest of Egypt. If you are spending time on the Nile, think about flying into Luxor or Aswan, or travel to Hurghada if you want to explore Red Sea coast of Egypt.
  • If you are looking at flights to Egypt so you can indulge in some diving, consider booking flights into Sharm El Sheik International Airport (SSH) which is a short taxi ride away from the resorts in Sharm El Sheik. Alternatively, you can book a flight into the airport in Hurghada and get a ferry across to Sharm El Sheik.
  • For visitors wanting to spend time in the Nile Valley, there are two main cities with airports here – Luxor and Aswan. If you want to visit the Valley of the Kings, then the closest airport is Luxor International Airport (LXR), which serves as the main hub for visitors to this area. Once you have arrived at the airport you will need to travel overland to the Valley of the Kings.
  • Visas are required for British passport holders who want to travel to Egypt. Although you can get a visa when you arrive at the airport in Egypt, it is advisable to get one online or at an Egyptian consulate before you fly to avoid queuing at the airport. If you do buy a visa at the airport, you will need to pay for it in Sterling, US dollars or Euros. British nationals who are holidaying for less than 15 days in one of the resorts on the Gulf of Aqaba, such as Sharm El Sheikh or Dahab, will not need a visa.
  • It is better to buy Egyptian pounds once you have arrived in the country as you will get a better rate for them than you would do buying them outside. There are ATMs and bureau de change counters at the main airports where you can obtain some local currency to pay for your trip from the airport.
  • If you are wanting to visit the famous pyramids of Giza or the Great Sphinx of Giza, you'll need to Cairo Airport (CAI), which is about 30 miles from the airport. There are two ways to get from the airport to the pyramids. The most popular is by taxi. Catching a taxi is the quickest most direct way, and takes only 1 hour. You can catch the bus, which is cheaper, but you'll have to change buses on the route.
  • When looking to find cheap flights to Egypt from London, you'll find leaving from either London Stansted Airport (STN) or London Luton Airport (LTN), and arriving at Sharm El Sheikh International Airport (SSH) are the cheapest available deals. SSH is the third-busiest airport in Egypt, and is a hub for EygypAir and Air Cairo.
  • When looking for cheap flights to Egypt, if you are attending the spectacular globally visited, Abu Simbel Sun Festival, which is on the 21st of February and the 21st of October, each year, and celebrates King Ramses II’s ascension to the throne, remember to be flexible with your travel dates. Flying into Egypt on these dates sees a drastic increase in flight prices.

I’ve always flew with Ryan, but never again I’ll always fly with easyJet

I’ve always flew with Ryan, but never again I’ll always fly with easyJet

There was no useful information given regarding the flight back to the UK from Tenerife. This despite the week publicised problems around the EES system and the delays caused to boarding. This aspect of the customer experience could have been much better.

Fast boarding, smooth takeoff and landing. plenty of space in seats. Excellent air-conditioning on a hot day. Perfect experience

Whole way through - far more professional and slick than I expected

Sitting on the last row in between the aisle and a massive person, all people going to the bathroom bumped into me including the flight attendants.

The best budget airline in Europe. Flight was on time, crew friendly and worked hard during flight and were able to meet our needs. Only downside (not the airline's fault), there were no rear steps.

It was transportation nothing more. I will give a positive rating over Ryanair. We missed our Ryanair flight the night before and received rude and unconcerned treatment from the Ryanair customer service. It was late. We were very tired and stressed after doing our best to get to the airport. The so called customer service ladies were completely unconcerned from the start. Aside from that, the flight to London seemed to be their opportunity for advertising. No time to relax as attendants were constantly in the aisle selling. I will never fly Ryanair again!!

Boarding could be better. To get through your gate but to be stood in a corridor for 20 minutes is not great.

Would not advise EasyJet for a 5 hour flight…small plane and hence a lot of turbulence. No inflight entertainment so struggle to pass time in cramped seats. We also fell victim to extra charge for our cabin bags, although bag dimensions were ok, but the handle was rigid and slightly fell outside their testing cage!!….never again will we fly with this airline and be party to their scams for making money!

The food and so are to expensive and old . Crew whas not very friendly . Apparently some other passenger can just Push through the waiting people to board while almost punching me and a father with a child down the stairs. Its always something with easy jet . The seats of row 26 where lose . And for a guy of my size there is absolutely no leg room at all .

Great flight, great crew, decent food. Premium Economy was very comfortable. I compare this flight to the one we took on BA from DC to London: Like a different airline. The food was atrocious, the crew aloof, and the cabin not as comfortable. Based on that first flight we said we'd avoid BA, but the return trip changed our minds.

Those seats were very comfortable. Nice leg room and food was great 👍

because the previous flight operated by BA was delayed, when arrived to the gate, I was surprised that I was taken out of this flight and they rebook me but with a different seat

delayed more than an hour with very poor boarding and service

We arrived at 430a for our flight. We only had carry on so we were sent to security. The BA person was tagging all carryon in case a shortage of bin space. We were on the plane like 20th and told we had to check carryon because it had a tag. Unexpected and unnecessary

The travel on premium economy class was very positive. Comfortable with plenty of space and leg room. The service throughout was top notch. Crew members were kind and helpful. Food and entertainment were excellent.

Very good flight. Delayed but no due to any fault of the airline. Food service is half a sandwich and crackers with a chocolate pot for a 5 hour flight so eat before boarding.

Very bad plain although I paid A business class ticket I was stuck in a stiff fixed seat without any entertainment or Wi Fi for 5 hours I will never ever book a flight on British airline.

Did not refund airfare, cancelled fue to war in the Middle East. Trip insurance was useless.

Entertainment depends on on-board wifi (no seat monitors) but wifi was not functining

The crew were outstandingly kind and cheerful. We carried our cat and they offered help.

Late departure. No announcements. Boarding was a disaster. Some kind of technical issue scanning boarding passes.

Pegasus is not a very comfortable airline. They’re not in any way hospitable

All good but air not give the pasing er any food even glase of water

Flight delayed by 1hr when we already boarded because someone had to get off. Leg room is terrible for 6ft people like me.

The crew was utterly non helping and non courteous.I asked for a water. The air hostess could have said it's paid . She informed me that I will come later after serving but never turned up. The seats were never comfortable.My first and last flight with Pegasus.I am not taking again

Cheap and cheerful. It’s a super cheap, no frills flight. Very professional and as it’s an A320 relatively spacious. Seats do not recline. Happy with the service. You get what you pay for. Can’t complain

I had 4 flights for less than a week and there were no delays and issues. Thanks to the crews and for perfectly organised service.

Pegasus is a clean safe and most importantly CHEAP way to travel. If you travel a lot on a budget, it can be a great option

I liked the pilot, he was very good and we arrived on the time

Experience at the airport Luxor has room for improvement. Boarding and off boarding process by bus not ideal

Worst Airline Experience of My Life – I Would Never Fly EgyptAir Again Our family of four traveled from Makkah to Washington Dulles (IAD) with a connection in Cairo, and it was by far the worst airline experience we have ever had. Our problems began before we even reached Cairo. The aircraft made what felt like an extremely hard and rapid descent, causing severe ear pain for me and my children. My son was crying in pain. When I asked a flight attendant for earplugs or any assistance, she simply replied that they had nothing. At Cairo Airport, EgyptAir left us and three other connecting passengers in a deserted area away from the terminal. Despite a three-hour layover, multiple requests for help, and shuttle vans passing every few minutes, the staff refused to assist us. Only after another passenger loudly confronted the staff were we finally allowed onto a shuttle, leaving us with barely an hour before departure. The onboard experience was just as disappointing. A middle-aged male crew member was rude and dismissive. During our 13-hour flight, no one offered us water, our call button was ignored, and meal trays remained in front of us until I had to repeatedly ask for them to be removed. The food was unpleasant, the aircraft was dirty, and the seats and windows were covered with fingerprints and grime. Cairo Airport itself was shockingly dirty and poorly maintained. I have flown with Emirates and Etihad Airways, and the difference is remarkable. Those airlines prioritize professionalism, cleanliness, safety, and customer service. EgyptAir did not. This experience was stressful, exhausting, and unacceptable for my family. I am sharing it because I do not want other families to go through the same ordeal. I will be telling my family, friends, colleagues, and anyone considering EgyptAir about what we experienced so they can make an informed decision. If I could give zero stars, I would. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend EgyptAir to anyone.

During the direct flight to egypt with egyptair the crew was very rude and forced me to accept food when i had asked if they had juice because i was not hungry and did not want the food he just yelled and gave me the food and so i asked my husband to ask him in arabic to take the food back because i did not ask for this and he told my husband to keep the food my husband is palestianian jordanian and i am irish american so clearly some discrimination towards me took part here not my husband as he respected my husband in his tone , i had been to egypt alone before and other parts of the middle east alone long before i met my husband and i have traveled with my family since a baby by plane for extra perspective as half my family is upstate new york and the other half texas . So every year of my life on planes before solo traveling and this is the only time my entire life i was given by force food on a plane by a flight attendant and yelled at to keep the food and felt unsafe the entire flight to egypt and the entire return flight from egypt because the plane was not the best quality and the return flight the entire flight the air conditioning among other things did not work . I will definitely try my best to find other options in future travels to egypt as i love egypt and loved egypt long before being married to my husband and i will be back even if alone .

Hello, I did not take the flight from IAD to Cairo- Istanbul on July 14 and could not travel because my next flight was from Istanbul to Tehran. Due to the tension there, I was advised to not to travel. Indeed, I was at the IAD airport at the boarding time 9am, on july 14, I informed egypt air counter head then that I am not taking the flight to Cairo and istanbul!, the team head gave me the contact of local office of egyptair in vienna, VA but they were not in the office on July 14 and I left three voice messages and email explaining my situation to them, but no reply came back from Egyptair Virginia office yet.!! I then informed underpricer customer support on whatsup about the situation and there auto reply sustem said that the support team would call to arrange for rescheduling or refund. but no one contact me yet. Can you provide proper support ?? Thank you Alaa Mohseni B 703655 1662 conf no. CYFFHW

Overall it was a good flight like any other normal flight staff could a littler nicer pretty short and was their to do their job so overall good services can’t complain

The experience exceeded my expectations and reflected the significant progress.

My flight was great. Service by the crew was great. Only issue I had wss it got extremely warm mid way thru the flight. To the point it was a little uncomfortable

To be honest, there has been a significant improvement in the level of EgyptAir in terms of service and food quality.

Nice flight, friendly crew, and a decent in-flight meal.

Far easier than I expected it to be. Checked in online & had our boarding passes emailed through. Straight through security & boarded on time. No issues.

Both of my flights had issues with their time slot with air traffic control, so they left over an hour late and the flight back to London was delayed by over an hour. Please provide more clarity about baggage requirements on booking sites, your website and within the app. I had to pay for extra bags at the airport when departing London, because they didn’t specify that your carry on bag can only be a backpack and not a trolley, my trolley bag fit the size requirements of the backpack but still I was made to pay

Were delayed in the airport for 5 hours with no explanation. Flight kept getting delayed by an hour at a time and wizz air staff were no where to be found

The flight was delayed 5 hours and I'm and invalid,I wan a refund for this

It's a budget airline. Great for short flight. Smooth landing.

4 hr delay and only told less than 2hrs before. Only given water and nuts on the flight as complimentary service. Left to wait in rain before boarding.

To be honest I did not like anything. Communication to why my flight was cancelled mid air 2 and half hours into my flight. Customer service desk were not helpful with providing information or a solution on what can be done.

I have been treated unacceptably by WizzAir aircraft crew in a previous flight, they threatened me and abused me, and I received an OFFICIAL written apology, but only two (2) months later. This flight had no such unacceptable behaviour, but it's not nice to be left waiting in the walkway (from gate to aircraft) for a long time, just so that the 'boarding' appears to be early, even if actual departure is not.

What I liked new airplane Sitting was extremely uncomfortable! Crew not smiley at all Always chewing gum

The flight was cancelled just 4 hours before the take off...
