Things to do in Cairo when you land

Khan el-Khalili bazaar, the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir, the Citadel of Saladin and Muhammad Ali Mosque, Al-Azhar and Al-Muizz Street and a felucca on the Nile at sunset are what most passengers come to Cairo for. 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. Eat grilled kofta and kebab in Khan el-Khalili, molokhia with rice and feteer from a Giza bakery while you are there.

We offer tours and transfers in Cairo as well as the flight ticket - one conversation, one plan for the whole trip.

Best time to fly from Lisbon to Cairo

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. On the flight from Lisbon to Cairo, 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 Cairo to Lisbon

We book the return leg from Cairo to Lisbon just as easily, usually on the same ticket. Booking both directions together lets us compare a return fare against two singles - on some airlines the return is much cheaper, on others two one-ways with different carriers win. Let us know the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.

How much is a flight from Lisbon to Cairo?

Flight prices from Lisbon to Cairo follow demand: book early on a quiet day and you pay a fraction of a last-minute fare in high season. The carrier you choose, whether the fare includes baggage, the seat class and the time of the flight all change the total. Rather than quote a number that will be wrong tomorrow, Haqqi Tours checks the fare for the day you want to fly and sends it to you in the WhatsApp chat before you decide.

Just ask 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 Lisbon to Cairo: how to pay less

The cheapest flight from Lisbon to Cairo is normally booked early, flown mid-week and chosen with the baggage you actually need. These are the rules our booking desk applies on every booking:

• Compare airlines - on this route the cheapest carrier changes from day to day
• Book both directions together when a return fare is cheaper than two singles, which we look up
• 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

We answer "what is the cheapest way to fly from Lisbon to Cairo?" many times a day; the answer for your dates comes back on WhatsApp with the booking ready to confirm.

How to book flights from Lisbon to Cairo with Haqqi Tours

The easiest way to book a flight from Lisbon to Cairo is to let a person do it. The form asks for the essentials; the details - a window seat, an infant, extra baggage, a wheelchair, a special meal - you tell us by WhatsApp when we message you to confirm. 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 through 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 Cairo

Because a person books it, we can do what a booking site does not: seat a family together, choose the fare with the right bag, add an infant correctly, line up the Lisbon to Cairo flight with a transfer from your hotel to Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS) and a driver waiting at Cairo International Airport (CAI).

Airlines flying from Lisbon to Cairo

Turkish Airlines flies the Lisbon to Cairo route, with a connection Istanbul. They differ in baggage rules, seat pitch, meals and the airports they use as much as in price, so the cheapest fare is not always the best value. Haqqi Tours lays the options out plainly: which fare includes a checked bag, which airline flies at the time you want, and which is the better choice for a family or a business trip.

Departure: Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS)

Your journey starts at Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport (LIS). We tell you the terminal for your airline, when check-in and bag drop close, and whether the airport has fast-track security worth booking. The metro's Red Line runs from the airport and reaches the centre with one change in about 30 minutes, and the Aerobus stops at fixed points; both are fine with a cabin bag, but Lisbon's hills, cobbles and old lifts make suitcases hard work, and Sintra or Cascais mean a further train, so a car to the door is the easier arrival.

• Haqqi Tours offers a private transfer from your hotel in Lisbon to Lisbon Humberto Delgado Airport
• Let us know about the terminal and fast-track options at Lisbon Humberto Delgado 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

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 Lisbon to Cairo journey: fixed price, flight tracked, straight to the hotel door.

Onward flights or trains from Cairo the same day can be added to the booking; let us know and we choose a Lisbon to Cairo departure that leaves a safe connection.
