Egypt Airports

Located in the north of the Africa continent, Egypt is a fairly large land mass with most of the country’s airports being situated in the east. Egypt’s history stretches back thousands of years and among its most widely recognised icons are the pyramids, the Sphinx and the mighty River Nile.

Cairo is a sprawling city with a population of 17 million and it is loaded with elaborate antiquities and twisting alleyways, while the intriguing city of Luxor has numerous grand temples and ancient examples of architecture. Also a must-see is the Valley of the Kings, which is the site of King Tutankhamen’s tomb.

The roads in Egypt are quite good although long journeys on tour buses can be uncomfortable. There are nine airports in Egypt that serve all of the county’s major cities including Cairo and Taba international airports.

Cairo International Airport is the main gateway to Egypt and is located about 15 miles northeast of the city in northern Egypt. Cairo’s two terminals receive flights from major world cities including those in North America, Europe, Asia and Africa. Unfortunately, Cairo International Airport is not the most up-to-date airport in the world, although banking facilities are available here. You can reach central Cairo by bus, while numerous taxis also run to the city and its hotels at a reasonable price. Limousines are also available as a more comfortable alternative.

Located in central Egypt, Luxor International Airport is a popular facility that serves the Nile Valley and it a convenient gateway for people heading to the popular tourist destinations of the region. Two updated terminals serve international and domestic flights, with a number of Egyptian carriers including Air Cairo and Egypt Air operating from the airport. The airport is located close to the city centre and taxis, limos and regular buses are available for transfers into the city.
