Currently, November is the cheapest month in which you can book a flight to Cairo (average of £499). Flying to Cairo in July will prove the most costly (average of £689). There are multiple factors that influence the price of a flight so comparing airlines, departure airports and times can help keep costs down.

Peak season:

Cairo enjoys a peak season lasting from around the middle of October until May time. The weather is usually warm but not scorching. Cheap flights to Cairo can be very difficult to find at this time without booking in advance, so try to secure your flight tickets at the earliest moment. March sees the International Jazz Festival and includes orchestras from all around the globe. There are usually different activities and workshops that occur alongside the event, so families can enjoy them if the jazz doesn’t suit the kids too much. September can be a busy month, although you can find cheap flights to Cairo a lot easier than in the peak of the year, and temperatures usually linger around the mid 20’s.

Off season:

June to late August is classed as the off season. It’s the summer time, but due to a combination of extremely high temperatures and a smog which can be very unpleasant, most tourists opt to avoid the summer. Thanks to this you can usually find the cheapest flights to Cairo from June to August, especially if you plan ahead. Mid-September to the middle of October is usually the month of Ramadan although it can vary so make sure to check this before you book your flight tickets. Ramadan can sometimes offer cheap flights to Cairo, but a lot of attractions will be closed, as will many restaurants and museums. Some places will open after sundown but the streets will otherwise be completely deserted. This can spoil a vacation as many things won’t be available for you.

Cairo airport overview

Cairo International Airport (CAI) is located 22km (14 miles) outside of the city and is the primary gateway to the ancient wonders of Egypt, including the Sphinx and the Pyramids of Giza. More than 16 million tourists and business travellers pass through Cairo Airport each year.

Because of the popularity of Egypt as a holiday destination, and the city’s convenient location between Europe, Africa and the Middle East, Cairo is an important hub for many airlines. You can find flights to Cairo International Airport from many cities on several continents, including London, Paris, Moscow, Tokyo, Rome, Johannesburg, Athens, Dubai, Beijing, Amsterdam, Bangkok, Vienna and Munich.

The airport’s Terminal 1 and new Terminal 3 facilities are considered clean and modern by Egyptian standards, however the bathrooms are often unclean and out of order, as is the case with many Egyptian airports. Cairo is not a pleasant airport to spend much time in, as entertainment, food and shopping options are rather limited and many staff members don’t speak English.

How long is the flight to Cairo?

Flights from London to Cairo: 4 hours 50 minutes. Flights from Manchester to Cairo: 6 hours 15 minutes. Flights from Birmingham to Cairo: 6 hours 25 minutes. Flights from Glasgow to Cairo: 7 hours 55 minutes.

Which airlines operate flights to Cairo?

How to get from the airport to the city centre?

The airport in Cairo is about 22km away from the city centre and there are a couple of options to help you get there. The cheapest way would be to jump on a bus from outside arrivals. Bus 356 is air-conditioned and goes to Tahrir Square in downtown Cairo or you can get buses 27 or 949. The last two are cheaper but don’t have air-conditioning. Your other option is to get a private taxi service. They are easily available from the airport but make sure you have agreed on the price before you get in, or else you might find yourself getting overcharged. Expect a fee of around EGP 80. As you leave the airport you’ll more than likely get swamped with people trying to get you into their taxi and giving you lots of fuss and it can be a bit overwhelming. Make sure you keep your wits about you and you should be fine. Lastly, once you’ve booked your flights to Cairo it’s worth seeing if your hotel can provide transfers to and from the airport. That way you won’t have to worry too much about finding your way.
