Agreed Teddyboy. When you have to travel to London from the north it adds a fortune on to your trip if you travel by train. Megabus is so uncomfortable and always late from the cities. Car parking is...
I can hardly believe my eyes, looking at the exchange rate £1 = 39.06LE!!! Whats going on? Will the locals be charging more for their services? It must be a good time to holiday in Egypt.

How the poor, and very people of Egypt are coping with this is impossible to imagine.
Same here! I'm genuinely fearful for some of my financially disadvantaged friends in Luxor. Whilst I do try to...

Interesting. I got the info from a reliable source at Manchester. But I have to agree nothing bookable on the Egyptair website. Usually they make a song and dance about a new route as they did with...
I flew into Cairo airport yesterday evening and was getting more and more confused because although the airlines had changed there flight times to accommodate the clocks going forward by one hour on...

I was worried to see all these mechanics going in and out of the cockpit
It can be rather disconcerting!

I just tipped on service, I don't mind tipping on service, forced tipping I disagree with. Before I lived in Luxor and holidayed there I would tip for things I was served, at the end of the holiday,...
Yesterday I flew to Luxor on the direct flight from Heathrow due to depart at 14.35

I had the same back in the summer. MS778 was over an hour late arriving but left 90 minutes late. However there weren't enough seats for the 300+ passengers. The crew did apologise but the service...
Hi Peeps,
It's been an incredibly long time since I posted on here and a very long time since my last visit,
The main reason for not doing my my usual twice yearly visits is the non existent direct...

If you cannot get to Heathrow easily, then flying into Luxor can be a real chew-on!
From the North, we now find it much much easier, and convenient, to fly direct from N/cle to Hurghada and bus it...

I think it's the interest in history that attracts tourism, it did me. Before living there we would go 3 or 4 times a year to explore the history. We like most of you know lived there 8 years, during...

Hepzibah, this last year I went to Fleetwood Mac Concert, Queen Concert, Il Divo Concert, and a few 60's bands in Concert so no I don't miss out, I just enjoy. Has any of them appeared at the...

We would love to take a two week break next year, but Larnaka to Luxor is 2 hour flight direct. It's the 4-5 hour stop over in Cairo that puts us off.
In a total of 7 hours we could get to India. I...
Just been reading all the info in the email from my Easyjet booking and found this bit where it says, if you bring any medication , you will need a Doctors letter saying that that you need it and how...

I flew to Rome with easyjet in August and was asked to provide a Doctors letter stating what medication I was on and why. I got the letter at a cost of £25 and also put a copy of my prescription in...
There are six flamingos now resident in the winter palace hotel gardens
Last post
These pale birds in the palace garden reminded me of how the flamingos at Copenhagen ZOO went from white to coral, when they were put on a diet containing paprika.
What has happened to the flights from Heathrow to Luxor? They are on the egyptair timetable but when you go to book they are not there. They are still advertised on sites like skyscanner but not on...

Ooooh, what a cock-up! I know one passenger (not a member on here) who will be absolutely livid at this.

Although I have posted the information in good faith, I suggest that you make enquiries locally about it as someone has suggested that it will probably only be for Egyptians.

Surely the barcode you’re given at checkin should say where your luggage is. I checked mine from Heathrow to Luxor via Cairo and was concerned my luggage wouldn’t make it. On checking at Cairo the...
