An hour in the air against seven on the road through the Sinai: Cairo-Sharm is the practical way to the Red Sea, and the airport is fifteen minutes from Naama Bay.
Things to do in Sharm El Sheikh when you land
Sharm El Sheikh sits at the southern tip of Sinai where the Gulf of Aqaba meets the Red Sea, with the airport (SSH) about 10 km from Naama Bay and 18 km from the old town, the reefs of Ras Mohammed to the south and the bays of Nabq and Shark's Bay stretching north. Start with the Coloured Canyon, glass-bottom and snorkelling boats and Ras Mohammed National Park, then Tiran Island reefs and the Blue Hole at Dahab. A tip from our desk: Nabq Bay is next to the airport while Hadaba and Ras Um Sid are past the old town - let us know the resort so we quote and time the right transfer.
If you want the days in Sharm El Sheikh organised - a driver, a guide, timed entry tickets - we do that too. Mention it by WhatsApp.
Best time to fly from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh
Warm all year with hot summers; the airport is busiest in the European winter and around Eid holidays, when the Naama Bay road is slow in the evening. On the flight from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh, seasons show in fares more than in schedules: holiday departures fill first, so we recommend booking early for summer, Christmas, New Year, Eid and Easter journeys.
Return flight from Sharm El Sheikh to Cairo
Coming back? Say so on the form. A return flight ticket from Sharm El Sheikh to Cairo booked with the outbound is often cheaper than two separate bookings, and it keeps the trip on one WhatsApp thread with one point of contact.
How much is a flight from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh?
The cost of a flight from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh depends on the date, the time of day, the carrier, the fare class and how far ahead you book. Airlines sell seats in tiers that rise as the plane fills, so the same seat can cost several times more on a holiday weekend than on a quiet Tuesday. That is why Haqqi Tours does not print a price on this page: we look up the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost on WhatsApp, with the options side by side.
Let us know for two or three options and we send the cost of each - for example the cheapest fare with hand luggage only, the same flight with a checked bag, and the best-timed departure of the day - so the comparison is in front of you before you book.
Cheapest flight from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh: how to pay less
Finding cheap flights from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh is timing plus flexibility. Here is how Haqqi Tours finds the lowest fare on the route:
- Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more
- Book early - low fare tiers open months ahead and sell first, especially for holidays
- Fly mid-week - Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday departures are generally cheaper than Friday, Sunday and Monday
- Consider early-morning and late-evening departures, which often carry the lowest fares
- Tell us if your dates are flexible - moving by a day can change the fare a lot
- Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
We answer "what is the cheapest way to fly from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh?" many times a day; the answer for your dates comes back in the WhatsApp chat with the booking ready to confirm.
How to book flights from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh with Haqqi Tours
The easiest way to book a flight from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh is to let a person do it.

We provide the ticket in your name, remind you of the check-in rules of that airline and stay reachable while you travel.
- Step 1 - fill out the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
- Step 2 - we message you by WhatsApp with the flights, the baggage included and the cost
- Step 3 - you confirm the flight you prefer and we arrange payment in the same chat
- Step 4 - we issue the e-ticket and send it; we stay in touch until you land in Sharm El Sheikh
If plans change, the same WhatsApp conversation handles it. We explain the airline's change and refund rules for the fare you chose before any payment, so there are no surprises later.

Departure: Cairo International Airport (CAI)
Flights from Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh leave from Cairo International Airport (CAI), serving Cairo - cairo is the largest city in Africa and the Arab world, spread along both banks of the Nile with the Giza pyramids on its western edge; Cairo International Airport (CAI) lies about 20 km north-east of Tahrir Square in Heliopolis, and the new Sphinx Airport serves the Giza side. Plan to be at the airport about two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one; earlier at peak times. Online check-in opens 24 to 48 hours before and we send the link with your ticket. Getting to the airport: Cairo Metro Line 3 reaches the airport area with a monorail and shuttle link under way, but the walk with bags and the changes to Downtown or Giza make it a poor start after a long flight; the pre-booked car goes straight through the airport road.
- Just ask about the terminal and fast-track options at Cairo International Airport
- Arrive about 2 hours before an international departure, 90 minutes before a domestic one
- Online check-in opens 24-48 hours before; we send the link and the booking reference
- Keep the passport or ID used for booking with the e-ticket - names must match exactly
Arrival: Sharm El Sheikh International Airport (SSH) and getting into Sharm El Sheikh
Arrival is at Sharm El Sheikh International Airport (SSH), and the first decision is how to reach the city. Sharm El Sheikh sits at the southern tip of Sinai where the Gulf of Aqaba meets the Red Sea, with the airport (SSH) about 10 km from Naama Bay and 18 km from the old town, the reefs of Ras Mohammed to the south and the bays of Nabq and Shark's Bay stretching north. We provide airport transfers in Sharm El Sheikh with a driver at arrivals, and we also tell you honestly if the train or metro from the airport is the better choice for where you are staying.
Arriving late at night? We note it and, if you have booked a transfer, the driver tracks the flight; a delay costs you nothing.
Baggage, seats and classes on the Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh flight
Before you compare the Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh flight prices, compare what they carry. A fare with hand luggage only can look cheapest and end up dearer once a bag is added. Haqqi Tours provides the fare that matches your bags: cabin bag only for a short trip, checked bag for a holiday, extra allowance for a long stay. Seat selection, meals and priority boarding are optional extras on many airlines; we tell you which are worth it.
- Seat selection free or paid depending on the carrier; families seated together on request
- Infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced fare; children have their own seat and fare
- Meals included on full-service airlines; special meals ordered in advance on request
- Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy

Groups - a company, a school, a wedding party - are booked together so everyone sits in the same section and one confirmation covers the whole party. Haqqi Tours also provides the minivans and Sprinters that carry a group between the airport and the hotel at both ends.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers to what travellers ask us most, before they book.
When is the best time to book the Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh flight?
As soon as your dates are fixed. Low fare tiers open months ahead and rise as seats sell; holidays and summer departures fill first.
Can I book the Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh flight for a group?
Certainly. Give the number of passengers on the form; we book everyone together in one reservation and, when the numbers justify it, ask the airline for a group fare.
Can Haqqi Tours arrange airport transfers?
Yes - a private car from your accommodation to Cairo International Airport and a driver waiting at Sharm El Sheikh International Airport, with flight tracking, on the same confirmation as the ticket.
How early should I be at Cairo International Airport?
Around two hours before an international departure and ninety minutes before a domestic one, more at peak times or with bags to check. Low-cost airlines close bag drop early - we send the exact deadline with the ticket.
Do I need to print the e-ticket?
No - the e-ticket and the booking reference on your phone are enough for check-in. We send both and remind you to carry the passport or ID used for booking.
Can I change or cancel my flight ticket?
Change and refund rules depend on the airline and the fare class; some tickets are flexible, the cheapest are not. We tell you exactly what applies before you confirm and handle any change through the same WhatsApp conversation.
What happens if I miss the flight?
It depends on the fare: the cheapest tickets are lost, flexible ones can be rebooked for a fee or free. We clarify the rules of your fare before any payment and help through WhatsApp if something goes wrong on the day.
What is the difference between economy and business class?
Business class means a much larger seat, a meal, lounge access, priority boarding and normally a more flexible ticket; economy is the practical choice for a 1 hour 10 minutes flight. We send the cost of both.
Can I choose my seat?
Usually yes - free at check-in on most airlines, or for a small charge at booking. Say what you prefer when we message you and we add it.
Do children and infants need a ticket?
Yes, at their own fares: infants under two travel on a lap at a reduced rate, children from two need a seat and normally pay a child fare. Give the ages on the form and we apply them.
Can I book a return flight from Sharm El Sheikh to Cairo?
Of course. Choose "return" on the form and give both dates; we compare a return fare with two singles and book the cheaper one. If the return date is not fixed, we explain the flexible options.
Is baggage included in the Cairo to Sharm El Sheikh flight ticket?
Not always. Full-service fares generally include a checked bag; low-cost and basic fares include hand luggage only. We state exactly what each fare includes before you book and add a bag where it is cheaper to do so at booking.
Where do I land in Sharm El Sheikh?
Sharm El Sheikh International Airport (SSH). Taxis and metro, tram or bus leave from arrivals, and Haqqi Tours can have a driver waiting with your name.
Which airport do I fly from in Cairo?
