Departure: Dublin Airport (DUB)

Flights from Dublin to Cairo leave from Dublin Airport (DUB), serving Dublin - dublin is the Irish capital of Trinity College, the Guinness Storehouse, Temple Bar and the Georgian squares. 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: Frequent express coaches and city buses reach the centre in about 30 to 45 minutes and suit a city-centre hotel with light luggage; there is no rail link at the airport, so a private car is simpler for families, big bags, late arrivals and destinations such as Howth, Malahide, Wicklow or Belfast.

Arrival: Cairo International Airport (CAI) and getting into Cairo

The flight lands at Cairo International Airport (CAI). 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. From arrivals you have taxis, public transport and, if you book it with us, a Haqqi Tours driver waiting with your name. For a family with bags, a pre-booked airport transfer is the easiest way to finish the Dublin to Cairo journey: fixed price, flight tracked, straight to the hotel door.

Baggage, seats and classes on the Dublin to Cairo flight

Baggage is the item that most often changes the real cost of a flight from Dublin to Cairo. Full-service fares typically include a checked bag and a cabin bag; low-cost fares start with a small cabin bag and add the rest. We tell you the allowance of the fare we send, and whether adding a suitcase at booking is cheaper than at the airport (it almost always is). Seats can be selected on most airlines for a fee or free at check-in; in economy and business the differences are space, meals and flexibility.

• Cabin bag on every fare; checked bag included on full-service fares, optional on low-cost ones
• Adding baggage at booking is cheaper than at the airport - we add it for you
• 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

Flying with children, families and groups from Dublin to Cairo

Travelling with children? Put the ages on the form: infants and children have different fares and different baggage allowances, and we apply both. 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.

Best time to fly from Dublin to Cairo

Flights from Dublin to Cairo run all year, a few a week. October to April is the comfortable season; summer is very hot, and Cairo traffic is heavy in the evenings and lighter in the early morning and on Friday mornings. If you can travel outside those weeks the same seat costs less and the airports are quieter. Whatever the month, early booking is the single biggest saving.

Return flight from Cairo to Dublin

How much is a flight from Dublin to Cairo?

"How much is the Dublin to Cairo flight?" is the question we get most, and the honest answer is that it moves every day. Low fares open months ahead and disappear as seats sell; peak seasons, school holidays and the most convenient departure times cost more; a fare with a checked bag and a flexible ticket cost more than a hand-luggage-only seat. Haqqi Tours provides the current cost for your date within minutes of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.

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.
