Flew from Sharm El Sheikh to CAI on Em-170, and CAI to CAN on 777-300 in
Business Class. Both flights were on time and departed with no problems. First
flight was full, second flight about 60% full. Only 5 of the 49 business class
seats occupied. From CAI to CAN it was overnight flight, so I did not eat. Slept
for 6.5 hrs in the flat bed seats, very comfortable. Breakfast was basic,
everything served at once on a tray. Very happy with the trip, and the price.

CPH-CAI-NBO. Egypt Air use smaller aircrafts (AB320 and Boeing 737) for these
long distance flights, which makes it a bumpy road. Aircraft's clean, well
maintained. Special meals accommodated and delivered to perfection. Food good,
FAs appeared attentive and efficient. No alcohol, but staff accepts consuming
own drinks you may bring onboard. IFE very poor. Seats roomy and acceptable.
Arrival in NBO in the middle of night may seem inconvenient but allow very fast
airport to town transfer due to no traffic jams, hardly any traffic at all.
Cheap tickets. Fast credit of mileage. All flights punctual.

GVA-CAI-BKK v.v. New 777-300ER on the long-haul - a real improvement. Very
comfortable lie-flat seats in business, fairly good IFE system, a big step
forward. Staff service seems to be improving too. On the way back it seemed like
a number of business class seats were occupied by MS staff. Food - main course
tasty while the first course seemed to be the same on every flight. They tried
to give priority boarding for business passengers in Geneva airport but not well
organized. Transfer at CAI airport the same as usual, passing by the transfer
desk even if already holding a boarding pass for the onward flight. Lounge ok,
flights on time. GVA-CAI-leg served by 737 as usual, with still fairly good
business class seating (2-2-configuration). All over, not bad for the money
paid.

Luxor-Cairo return. A tale of two airlines. Outbound very old 737, seats falling apart and unpleasant crew.
Service consisted of a carton of undrinkable liquid with no other choice. Return was a different story. Brand
new plane, professional and friendly crew, and choice of drink from the bar.

Brussels - Cairo - Dar Es Salaam in economy. Small and older aircraft on first leg, completely full. Older seats,
standard interior, nothing special. Newspapers in French, English and Arabic. Food was ok. Leg space ok. For the
price nothing to complain. Second leg also small to medium aircraft with same interior and same service. No
problems at all, no fancy things either.

Rome to Addis Ababa, flight was delayed about 10 hrs in Rome and they did not give any information. Finally we
reached Cairo by the time our connecting flight had left. We are forced to wait for next flight but the staff in
the airport did not care - with a great force we were kept in hotel for a day, then they asked to vacate the hotel
without the confirmation of the flight. We were in the airport from 1100 pm to the next days flight at midnight -
almost 24hrs in airport without any facilities. It was their mistake and it is a great punishment to the
passengers.

Economy LHR-SSH-LHR. Check-in smooth and efficient with no significant delays. Both flights departed within 10
mins of the scheduled time and both arrived early at destination. Meals were acceptable but not outstanding.
Regular non-alcoholic refreshment was served. Inflight entertainment was available but unexciting. No cause for
any significant complaint.

Travelled to Entebbe via Cairo return. 3 of my 4 trips delayed by at least 90 mins to 2 hrs. The excuse on the first
occasion was that we were waiting for a First Class passenger. One of my bags delayed for 2 days when I arrived
in Entebbe. I also booked a vegetarian meal, no problem here but all 4 hot meals were the same, rice and grilled
vegetables. The service on the flights, staff and transfer through Cairo were fine. But generally the planes
particularly on the Entebbe legs were cramped and poor quality compared to others on that route.

I have flown Egyptair several times since my family moved for work 2 yrs ago, I am constantly pleased with the
service and overall ease at which staff provide good customer service. I recently returned to London and
unfortunately mid flight suffered sickness rather badly. I was treated with respect and dignity and at no time felt a
nuisance. I appreciate the service given.

As a disabled passenger they could not have been more helpful and the flight from Heathrow to Cairo was
excellent. Food and cabin staff good, the only downside was the rather definite landing we had. Flight by Airbus
from Cairo to Alexandria again had lovely cabin staff and refreshments served twice during 40 min flight. Airport
staff at Cairo and Alex also friendly and helpful which makes a change.

CAI-IST. Flight departed on time. Clean and friendly crew. Food was of a good quality, the only sad point is there
was no entertainment program.

BRU-CAI-JHB and DAR-CAI-BRU. Airbus not new, no inflight entertainment, food adequate, friendly crew. All flights
departed on time and arrived even before scheduled arrival time.

JFK-Cairo. Not a horrible flight but the restrooms were not cleaned in 10 hrs. The cabin was hot and the seat
didn't have the air adjustment option. Flight crew seemed lazy and unfriendly. Never came around with water, I
had to ask, no rubbish collection.

London Heathrow to Baghdad, with a 4 hour layover in Cairo. I was surprised by the quality, I was
expecting terrible service, and an out of date plane, however I had an good check-in experience and the flight itself,
on one of Egyptair's newer Boeing 777-300 planes was excellent. While IFE did not have the range of programs
that some airlines offer, it offered far more of a range than some. The food was good enough, service was easily
available and the cabin crew polite and helpful. The only drawback was no alcohol available. The flight to Baghdad
left early and was more than half empty so there was plenty of room to stretch out.

Good staff, the lack of alcohol contributed to a pleasant flight. Airbuses were a bit tired, but the new Boeing
737-800 was comfortable. Great value, nice service, and only slightly delayed.

CAI-BRU with an old A321 (10 Business seats). Business class might have been acceptable 20 yrs ago, but now
it's a real disgrace. Out of date Business Class, no personal screen, no pillow, no amenity bag, two French
newspapers, no English ones. Flight attendants tried to make the flight as comfortable as possible.

CAI-CPH. Flight was on time, the Aircraft was a new 737-800. Economy class, the service was very good, the
staff patient considering the number of school students onboard. FA's tried patiently to control them and keep
them seated. BER CAI. Station Manager was extremely friendly to everybody. Flew Business class, the flight was
on time, seats were old fashioned but comfortable and functional, Video & Audio programs were excellent, food
was good quality and FA's nice and interacting with passengers.

FRA-CAI. Check-in was very unorganized, waited 1 hr to be checked in. Lounge was nice but very crowded. They don't
have Priority Boarding for Business Class passengers. The seat was very uncomfortable considering it was a business
class seat - it doesnt become lie flat. There was PTV's but they were blurry and the control panel wasn't working
and not very many choice of movies. The food was horrible - cold. The flight attendants hang out in the galley.

Flight from Cairo to Beijing. Old Business Class, the seats were not comfortable at all. The legroom was like in
Economy. The First Class cabin also seemed to offer less comfort than Business normally does. Food was ok. The
only advantage is the good value for money.

On my way to New York I had a stopover in Cairo. Ground staff were as polite and helpful as were the inflight
staff. Confirmation that this hadn't just been my lucky day I had the same experience on my way back. My only
moan was the music. If they could add a little bit of some laid back jazz.

DUR-JHB-CAI. BEY-CAI-JHB-DUR. Excellent comfort and great value for money. Seats were wide plenty if legroom
and good footrest. No PTV was a large drawback though but I sleep though out the whole flight. A great airline and
will use them again.

Doha-Cairo-Doha, service was good, food was good, most of the crew was helpful, the plane wasn't new, it was
old maybe 7 yrs old but it was clean and comfortable. I would travel again with Egypt Air.

Flew BKK-CAI-LHR return. Had new planes on all legs except last flight CAI-BKK. Flights were all more or less
on time, cabin crew were friendly enough, food was mostly good. Older plane on last leg had no personal IFE,
but as it was a night flight, we tried to sleep anyway, the food was not as good out of Cairo. The new planes
were very nice, the toilets were large and very clean and the seats were comfortable. Overall, I was pleasantly
surprised and would fly with Eygptair again if the price was right.
