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 Dubai to Cairo flight

Before you compare the Dubai to Cairo 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 offers 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 airline; 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

Flying with children, families and groups from Dubai to Cairo

Families fly the Dubai to Cairo route with us all year round. 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

the Pyramids of Giza and the Sphinx, the Grand Egyptian Museum, Khan el-Khalili bazaar, the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir and the Citadel of Saladin and Muhammad Ali Mosque are what most travellers 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 ful and ta'ameya for breakfast, grilled kofta and kebab in Khan el-Khalili and molokhia with rice while you are there.

Haqqi Tours provides guided tours, tickets, airport transfers and private drivers in Cairo; ask when you book the flight and we send the options.

Best time to fly from Dubai to Cairo

Flights from Dubai to Cairo run all year, 10+ a day. 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 Dubai

We book the return leg from Cairo to Dubai just as easily, generally 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 Dubai to Cairo?

The cost of a flight from Dubai to Cairo 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 check the live fares for your exact date across every airline on the route and send you the real cost by WhatsApp, with the options side by side.

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 Dubai to Cairo: how to pay less

A cheap Dubai to Cairo flight ticket is rarely luck. It is the right airline, the right day and the right fare class - which is what we check for you:

• 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
• 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 check
• Ask about infant and child fares and about group bookings for four or more

Send us the form with your dates and we tell you which departure is the cheapest flight from Dubai to Cairo that day and what a slightly different day would cost.

How to book flights from Dubai to Cairo with Haqqi Tours

The easiest way to book a flight from Dubai 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 let us know on 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 - complete the form: date, one-way or return, adults and children, class
• Step 2 - we message you in the WhatsApp chat 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 Dubai to Cairo flight with a transfer from your hotel to Dubai International Airport (DXB) and a driver waiting at Cairo International Airport (CAI).
