 Hurghada airport - B-747
Transaero arrival by Kuznetsov_Sergey, 4 more photos
While choosing a tour to Egypt I have taken advantage of a low season and opportunities of two airlines. Usually tourist operators offer air tickets to Hurghada by one airline. It helps to receive the discount at purchase of return tickets. Usually standard tours have duration of 8 days and 7 nights (plus additional one or two weeks if you want).
My tour was a practically completely excursion tour. Therefore it was important for me I could have a rest on the sea even one and a half or two days. For this reason I have chosen early morning Saturday flight to Hurghada by "Transaero" airline and returning to Moscow late Sunday flight by "Atlant-Souyz" airline. Therefore my tour was prolonged 9 days and 8 nights (including only 5 working days and 4 target days).
I don't know the price of my air tickets because I bought a complex tour with all transfers. But I think two-way ticket coasted about $350. I flied to Hurghada by "Boeing-747" and came back Moscow by "Iljushin-86". It took me 4 hours one way flight. There weren’t any delay. We arrived to Hurghada and Moscow just according to the schedule. Theme: Airplane

This airport is one three main air Egypt gates (besides Cairo and Sham el-Sheikh). There are local airports in Abu Simbel, Alexandria, Aswan, Luxor. But the most of tourists usually arrive to Cairo, Hurghada and Sham el-Sheikh.
30 year ago the airport of Hurghada had only military value. Now it’s quite modern and equipped with tourist facilities place.

Being a popular (thanks to its cheapness, sea, and proximity – albeit a relative one – to Luxor) sea resort, Hurghada has an airport of its own, not really far from the city. Or, better, not really far from the first hotels on the seafront beach, because the town itself is somewhat further north.
There are charter flights into Hurghada airport from most European countries, like Russia, Germany, Italy, France, UK and the rest of them. The main plus of them is that they are cheap, the main drawbacks are that often you can not get them without booking a hotel with the tour company (which might be more expensive than booking it on your own) and that you can go only for an amount of times equaling one week, two weeks, three weeks, or a month.

The easiest way to get to Hurghada is by air. Egypt air has reliable service from Cairo and other places. As a foreigner you pay more than a local but the price is still OK, although sometimes getting to Hurghada with a charter from abroad can be cheaper than flying from Cairo.

 About 1/2 way through the line by saabfan |
The city is served by the Hurghada International Airport with direct connections with several cities in Europe.
There are also daily flights to and from Cairo. Some times a week there are flights to Sharm el-Sheikh and once a week to Aswan by Luxor.
The ariport is very interesting in itself, when I was there he airport was in caos. Not really know where to go and not many people around that could help you. But I've heard that the airport has improved alot the last year or two. But I must say it was a fun and interresting experience. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane
