EgyptAir operates 7 weekly non-stop flights to Alexandria

Within its strategic plan to link the UAE, especially Dubai, with the Egyptian major cities, Egypt Air announced that it will start operating a daily non-stop flight between Dubai and Alexandria starting 20th of June. In this context, Mr. Ashraf Hassan, Egypt Air Dubai District Manager, said “Egypt Air considers the UAE as one of the most important markets in the Middle East; also Dubai embraces a great number of expatriate Egyptians.” He added “On the other hand, Alexandria is one of the major touristic and travel places in Egypt and as well being a fertile market for Arab and Foreign investments.”

Noteworthy, Egypt Air will be operating the flight by its Airbus 320/200 which provides 145 seats, and is suitable with the short and medium range flights. Moreover, the flights will be operated to Nozha Airport in downtown Alexandria which will reduce the effort and time of Egypt Air customers.

Through this new route, Egypt Air will enable its customers from having a new access point between Egypt and the UAE. Egypt Air is currently operating 28 non-stop flights between Cairo and the UAE by 14 weekly flights to Dubai, and 7 weekly flights to both Sharjha and Abu Dhabi. By the beginning of the next month, Egypt Air is going to increase its flights to 31 weekly flights between Cairo and UAE by 14 weekly flights from Dubai, 10 from Abu Dhabi and 7 from Sharjha.

Reservation is now available through Egypt Air offices, travel agents and www.egyptair.com, which enables the customers from selecting the best ticket price, meals and obtaining multiple useful services.
