Egyptair

✅ Trip Verified | This was my first time and last time flying with Egyptair. I have never written a review on anything my whole life, but this experience was so bad that I had to. The staff members In the airport are like a gang all they want is for you to give them money. The worst airline and the worst customer service ever.

✅ Trip Verified | I had a normal flight all the way (slept most of the times) so did not notice other extra things, I was very tired until I arrived at my destination without two of my three luggage. I had to go to write a statement at 2 O'clock in the morning, they assured me they will trace the bags and contact me. After two days they called me and told me they have found my bags and they will deliver them to the address I provided, I was very impressed until one of the bags was not mine so I had to file another statement. Its been 2 months 2 weeks since then and I have not heard from anyone from Egyptair and am not sure I will, I have emailed them more than 10 times but no respond. That was my first worst experience ever am not flying that airline ever again. Advice to the airline you need to have open communication with your clients, its the only way of solving the problem and reply at least to one of their emails/msg, we are the ones missing our luggage, we need to know what's happening. Am a very disappointed client.

✅ Trip Verified | Worst airline experience I have ever had and customer service was very poor. The aircraft was old and dirty. No one bothered to clean the lavatories despite being shared by very many people. We were made to wait for more than an hour to be transferred to the business class lounge in Cairo.

✅ Trip Verified | I had return ticket From JFK to DAC and both ways my experience was horrible. I had my elderly relative (80+ year old), wheelchair passenger who were not attended at the Cairo Airport properly, the Trolley driver at the Cairo airport was yelling with other staff at the airport in local language and drove the trolley like crazy. Wheelchair supposed to be gate to gate, but he dropped us off in a area near the elevator and left us by ourselves. There was lounge for business class, foods were awful, Bathrooms even worse. Near to our flight time, when nobody came with wheelchair, we had to ask the front desk to request a wheelchair for us, but they didn't, we were late to arrive at our departure gat. A few hours into our flight to JFK, twoout of three restrooms were Out Of Order! Flight attendants did not have professional attitude, sitting around most of the flight. Seats do not work properly, some buttons works, some doesn't! No information on what kind of food they will serve, and they have no wine etc. Inflight Entertainment very old and poor system, sound system will hurt your ear.

✅ Trip Verified | We had a return with Egyptair Brussel-Entebbe via Cairo. On the first flight everything was ok; the food, friendliness of the stewards etc. Our luggage arrived a day later in Entebbe but the hotel told us that this happened by all airplane companies. The problem was the flight back a month later on the 18th of August. We where in an area with no internet but on August 10 we read that on August 3 an email was send that our flight was canceled. Egyptair proposed a flight on August 26, 8 days later. Because they announced it more than 14 days before, refund was not possible. Our intermediair Cheaptickets arranged tickets for us for the 19th but shortly after that they said that Egyptair said it was fully booked. On their site the flight was still offered for a high price. The same happend with the next booking for August 21. In the end we booked an expensive flight from another company. Cheap tickets will try to get a refund for us. The height of this wil be far below the extra costs we have made. What bothers me is that Egyptair tries to sell seats against a high price but also says that the flight is fully booked.

✅ Trip Verified | Surviving EgyptAir If you care about your mental well-being, safety, and belongings, then DO NOT EVER FLY WITH EGYPTAIR. My girlfriend and I flew with EgyptAir on Thursday 27th July 2023 from London to Accra (MS780 and MS881) with a layover in Cairo. When we landed in Accra the following day, our luggage did not appear on the conveyer belt. This was also the case for over fifty fellow passengers. We were told by Aviance Ghana staff members (the airline ground handling company at Accra Kotoka International Airport) that all the luggage had arrived and we would have to file a property irregularity report (PIR). EgyptAir’s website states that "in the event that your checked bags do not arrive on your flight, EGYPTAIR will make reasonable efforts to ensure that the bag is returned to you within 24 hours." However, this was not fulfilled as our checked baggage was not on the flight which arrived on Saturday 29th July 2023. As the majority of our two-week trip was scheduled to be in Kumasi, we headed to our destination and had someone check for our bags each day there was an incoming flight to Accra from Cairo (Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday). The email communication from EgyptAir is below par. It took over ten emails to get a response from the different email addresses I had messaged. The London email account was slightly helpful, but could not provide any information on where my bags were as they said the baggage email account had that information. Their social media pages copy and paste the same message, advising to contact the email the baggage team. The baggage team email did not respond until Tuesday 5th August 2023, despite having emailing them and other accounts since Sunday 30th July 2023. They had requested for our bag tags, yet they never responded to my email with the attached bag tags. I tried tracking the bags using my bag tag numbers on their app and it didn’t work. Even if you check on World Tracer it says “your airline is not supporting this service. Please contact the airline’s website for further information.” The bags eventually arrived on Monday 7th August 2023, but my girlfriend and I each had a bag damaged. We were offered temporary compensation by EgyptAir, equating to 100 USD in Ghana Cedis. Our experience with EgyptAir was not unique and they have a common pattern delaying and damaging passenger’s luggage. If you check tweets, countless people flying to destinations across Europe, Africa and America have had their bags lost, damaged or delayed. Even people in the queue waiting for the PIR in Accra said they frequently delay your bags because they have small aircrafts and only bring in luggage on big aircrafts. DO NOT FLY WITH EGYPTAIR. You are better off training to become a pilot, buying your own aircraft and flying to the destination yourself than having a pleasant experience in EgyptAir. Now battling to receive compensation from EgyptAir for delayed and damaged bags. Evening rating them 1/10 is not a fair rating.

Not Verified | Beside the 1h and half delay and the lack of air conditioning, the most horrible experience was the customer service onboard, the crew was rude and not smiling at all, not helpful, rolling their eyes when we ask questions and staying behind eating and laughing between them. I had to go by myself 4 times to ask for water, even when I was pressing the button for calling them they never came. I am travelling around the globe and I never lived something like that. Shame on you Egyptair to have these incompetent people on board. Not even a smile! Egyptair never again

Not Verified | Incompetent ground personnel at customer service and ticket counters. Flight attendants have a bad attitude. Pilots totally ignore passengers: No public Announcement is being made. Flights are systematically delayed. Bags delivery on the carousel takes forever. No electrical outlet, WiFi, or entertainment during the flight.

✅ Trip Verified | Check-in staff at Dubai were nice but that's it! First of all when booking tickets on Egypt Air, it is very strange that they want a residence address at the destination. Considering most people are tourists, they wouldn't have an address. And most people book their flights before their hotel. So you have to just make up an address! Other sites offering the same flights don't even ask for this. Once you've booked the flight, after the first email, which shows your correct luggage allowance every other the confirmation email keeps saying "no luggage details can be found", which is concerning so to make sure I drove to Central London's Egypt Air office to confirm my luggage allowance because they NEVER pick up the phone or reply to emails! On the flight from London to Dubai via change-over at Cairo, they delayed my baby's stroller by more than a day. By the time we received it, it was the end of the following day. So we had to carry the baby around for 2 days everywhere we went, along with other bags and 3 other kids. This made our first 2 days of our holiday VERY difficult. Once folded the stroller is one of those extremely compact ones, easyily within cabin size but gate staff refused us to take it on the plane, which also meant we couldn't use it in Cairo transit either. We contaced Egypt Air regarding the delayed stroller but they didn't even reply after over a month of waiting, let alone offer ANY compensation. Some of the flight attendants on the flights were quite rude, they acted like they REALLY didn't want to be there. A simple request of a glass of water would be given to you with a dirty look. The staff wouldn't want to serve you tea or coffee either. Worst experience on any flight. Had I been offered even a little compensation I would've been satisfied and just forgotten the Flight treatement, but they didn't even have the courtesy to respond. Food also lacked any real flavour.

✅ Trip Verified | I was nervous to fly with Egyptair with so many negative reviews but it went really well. Flights on time from Tel Aviv to Cairo and back. Clean and modern aircraft. Friendly and efficient on-board staff. Lounge access (Star Alliance Gold) granted with "OK" experience. The boarding gate was chaotic. It was unclear when we were about to board (lots of flights using same gate).
