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

Arrival is at Cairo International Airport (CAI), and the first decision is how to reach the city. 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. We provide airport transfers in Cairo 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 Moscow to Cairo flight

On board, the Moscow to Cairo flight is about 4 hours 30 minutes: economy is perfectly comfortable, and business class adds a bigger seat, a meal and lounge access for those who want it. Baggage rules differ by airline and fare; children and infants have their own allowances. Let us know who is flying and what you are carrying and we choose accordingly.

  • Business class: bigger seat, meal, lounge, priority boarding - we send the cost beside economy
  • 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 airline; families seated together on request

Flying with children, families and groups from Moscow to Cairo

Families fly the Moscow to Cairo route with us every week. Infants under two travel on a lap at a small fare; children have a seat and a child fare where the carrier offers one; pushchairs are checked free at the gate on most airlines. We seat the family together, order children's meals where they exist and choose a departure time that suits nap and bedtime. For groups, we book the seats in one reservation and ask the airline for a group fare where the numbers justify it.

Things to do in Cairo when you land

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. The reasons passengers fly from Moscow to Cairo include the Grand Egyptian Museum, Khan el-Khalili bazaar, the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir, the Citadel of Saladin and Muhammad Ali Mosque and Al-Azhar and Al-Muizz Street. For the first meal, try grilled kofta and kebab in Khan el-Khalili, molokhia with rice and feteer from a Giza bakery.

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 Moscow 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 Moscow 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 Moscow

We book the return leg from Cairo to Moscow 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. Tell us the day you want to come back on the form and we send both directions with the cost.

How much is a flight from Moscow to Cairo?

"How much is the Moscow 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 can provide the current cost for your travel date shortly afterwards of receiving the form - the actual fare, not an estimate.

What the price we send includes: the ticket in the fare class you chose, the taxes and airport charges, the baggage that fare carries, and our service - comparing the airlines, booking, sending the e-ticket and helping if the flight changes. We tell you clearly if a bag or a seat costs extra on that fare.

Cheapest flight from Moscow to Cairo: how to pay less

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

  • Pack to the fare: a hand-luggage-only ticket is cheaper if you do not need a checked bag
  • 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 verify
  • 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

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

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 add extra baggage or sports equipment?

Yes - extra bags, skis, golf clubs and bicycles can be added at booking on most airlines, at a lower rate than at the airport. Tell us what you are carrying.
