Air Cairo

✅ Trip Verified | Horrible experience, kept delaying with late notifications, checked in before 5 pm supposed to fly 6 pm only to finally fly after 8.30 pm with multiple delays. This was my 4th delay was this airline in 4 times i bought seat with them, basically always on delay. They did offer a snack though. Save your snack & fly on time, they are growing exponentially even intl , probably its too big for them!

Not Verified | Horrible, they change the departure time without any notification, at commercial desk were rude and useless to find a solution. Don't give them any money they are not worth it, better pay more with another company at least you'll be sure to arrive at your destination. Flight cancelled, 1 day of vacation waiting at the airport and they just give us an orange juice, what a company!

✅ Trip Verified | They changed the flight departure time during the Eid holiday and claim they informed the tourist agency with the change but they didn’t make sure the agency knew of this change given that we’re on Eid vacation. Bottom line is, I’m at the airport and have seen my flight take off after having the captain refused to take me on board. Just careless and don’t take matters or people seriously.

✅ Trip Verified | The seat pitch and width were a bit tight. The on-board service consists of water. Other drinks and food must be purchased. Departure and arrival were on time. The cleaning condition of the toilet seats in ​​this relatively new aircraft is more than unclean.

✅ Trip Verified | We had a flight from Hurghada to Munich with Egypt Air. In turned out, that the service was executed by Air Cairo. Already before the boarding the communication with Air Cairo was bad. In contrast to the advertised online checkin the corresponding website did not work. Arriving at the airport we have been blocked from entering the building, because a speaker of the airline told that all flights of Air Cairo to Munich were cancelled. So we bought a ticket to Stuttgart with a different airline. 2 hours later the new information is, that Air Cairo flies now today to Munich. What a mess! In the aircraft it was a horrible seating, much to narrow for normal Europeans. It was a mayhem to fly with this airline. In addition very bad air quality in the air craft. I left it with head ache and serious muscle strains. Finally a meal was not included, but had to be paid in contrast to what was advertised by Air Egypt during the booking. A 150ml cup of water for a 6hours stay in the air craft.

✅ Trip Verified | I flew with my husband from Sharm El Sheikh to Cairo to see the pyramids and Egyptian Museum, with a return flight to Sharm three days later. The flight took off on time, the cabin crew were friendly and the seats were comfortable. Unfortunately my husband was taken ill in Cairo and I decided we needed to return to the UK. I cancelled our return flight on the morning we were due to fly back to Sharm. The money was in my bank two days later. I would fly Air Cairo again.

✅ Trip Verified | Worst airline experience I've ever had. Ruined my last day in Egypt. Spent a total of 10 hours in airport due to delays then when arrived in Cairo baggage was also delayed. Aircraft dirty seats uncomfortable. I booked a tour and this was the flight they sent me on. Never book with this airline. It will ruin your holiday.

Not Verified | Nice flights all on time with friendly staff for a good price. Non of the services offered could be purchased in advance (seats and meals) as all credit cards were rejected. Also shocked to see use of a kettle (!) On the floor behind row 1 in the galley!

✅ Trip Verified | Flight from Cairo to Hurghada was cancelled and they sent me an email at 10:00 pm, 8 hours before the flight time and what I didn’t realize that they also changed the airline to Egyptair. So it’s not the same terminal in Cairo, Terminal 3 instead of terminal which is 18 minutes by car. So I didn’t catch the flight and had to buy a new one way ticket for a flight after 3.5 hour! So after checking in to Hurghada airport for the return flight & everything was fine until the flight is delayed for 19:00 instead of 17:30 and my original booking was for 14:00 but they sent me an email 4 days ago that this flight is cancelled &. They chose to give me the sm 63 flight at 17:30. Conclusion: If you have any work on the day of the flight with this airline company be sure that you will not reach on time. Or maybe you will not reach the same day.

✅ Trip Verified | I will forever regret not treating the bad reviews seriously before traveling with Air Cairo. Their flight from Hurghada to Prague turned out to be by far the worst traveling experience of my life. First problems arose when we were notified in Hurghada that our flight was delayed by five hours. I discovered on flightradar24.com that the reason for the delay was the plane having been diverted to Skopje on a flight from Hurghada to Belgrade earlier that day. This was our first warning sign, foreshadowing what was to come next. When we finally took off and headed to Prague, the captain announced that our flight was diverted to Leipzig, Germany due to "bad weather" in Prague. The crew also told us that no planes were allowed to land in Prague for this reason whatsoever. When we confronted them with the fact that we were the only plane being diverted, they suddenly changed their story and claimed that our aircraft was not suitable for landing in low visibility. When we proved this to be a lie as well, they changed their story once more and told us that the pilots were inexperienced and therefore not trained for landing in foggy weather. What the real reason for the diversion was and how their side of the story would have developed had we pushed on them further, I have no idea. When we were finally allowed to leave the aircraft in Leipzig, we received no information about future plans whatsoever and the crew simply went to bed. The staff at Leipzig Airport were unable to help us either since the only people who knew at least something about our situation were asleep. At least that is what they said. Furthermore, they denied us access to our check-in luggage in spite of some passengers being in urgent need of their medication. On the plus side, Leipzig Airport provided us with beds and blankets to survive the night, for which we were thankful. Air Cairo, on the other hand, did nothing. The following morning was a disaster as well. A substitute flight from Leipzig to Prague was scheduled first for 5:30am, then for 11:00am. However, we still had no specific information as the airport staff was unable to reach the crew and the management of Air Cairo refused to communicate with us. The airport staff claimed that the only thing for which we were waiting was the crew, who were asleep at the hotel. Yet when the management of Air Cairo finally started answering our questions, they told us that the crew were already waiting at the hotel in their uniforms, not knowing themselves why they were not able to fly. What was the reason for the waiting, then? Were we waiting for the fog in Prague to disappear? We had no idea because no one bothered to tell us. After many hours of stressful waiting, during which we were again given misinformation multiple times and several passengers burst into tears, the crew finally arrived with no further explanation at 12:45pm and we took off at 1:30pm. To sum up, our landing in Prague was delayed by 20 hours. There are, however, two aspects of our situation that are most annoying. Firstly, it was argued that our issues were caused by fog. Yet we were the only plane on that day which had this problem and dozens of other aircraft were perfectly capable of taking off and landing in Prague. The problem was therefore clearly on the side of the airline and their pilots. And secondly, what I consider even more disgraceful was the arrogance with which the airline treated us and all their deception, lies and lack of communication.
