I mistakenly missed 1 letter of my name on my tickets. And I visited Saudi airline office at least 4 days before travel, the guy there guide me that there will be no problem for me as you have missed only 1 letter of your name else your everything is correct passport number etc …. But before flying they didn’t allow me to check in on this ticket and their behavior was so rude. Worst experience. Any how at the end I purchased new tickets. I recommend you all to please re consider Saudi airline before traveling as their after services and behavior is so poor.

The airport has gradually been modernised over the past decade, with the modern Terminal 2 building absorbing much of the old Terminal 1 building’s traffic. Although there are steady complaints about luggage theft and dirty facilities, the small airport manages to process more than seven million passengers a year, making it Egypt’s second-busiest airport, just behind Cairo.

Which airlines operate flights to Sharm el-Sheikh?

How to get from the airport to the city centre?
The airport is just 18km North-East of the city, and there are three options to get you from there to the city to start your vacation.

Make sure to agree on a price before you get in to save yourself the hassle of being overcharged. It’s also a good idea to speak to a few different drivers and make out you have other potential options to give yourself a better chance of haggling and agreeing a good price. There are minibuses you can get from outside of Terminal 1, pay as you get onboard and just tell the driver where you wish to be dropped off as there are no bus stops along the route. Finally you can rent a car although this isn’t a great idea unless you are familiar with driving around Egypt. The airport is only 15 minutes away by car so if you’re not planning to explore further your best bet is either the bus or taxi.
