Question Any other Budget airlines

Anyone know about any other budget airlines looking at the Hurghada route.

I'd "heard" a rumour that BMI may be starting something - or is this old news.

BMI started a daily service from Heathrow to Cairo in October; we are already using it. Flights cost at this time of the year around 400 GBP.

Hi Peter

it that £400 for one person that sounds a bit steap then you have to get over to hurghada from cairo. I pay on average from manchester to Hurghada £250 per person with XL

It is certainly not cheap it is a daily scheduled service but we use BMI in conjunction with Egypt Air as we have to get clients out on Inspection flights for max 3 days. We can't use the charter operators like Excel, My Travel Lite or Thompson for that as they only go out and back for one week or more duration, leaving UK on a Friday....we subsidise the inspection flights, our clients pay 350 GBP including hotels and meals. If they buy through us they get it all back.

This is a new service from BMI; if its successful I am sure they will increase the frequency and add Manchester flights...

Thumbs up Contact at Easyjet

I have just received an email from easyjet confirming that they will be continuing the gatwick/hurghada service and that they will advise me when they are taking direct booking.



Sounds more promising
Hi

If you can pass on your contact at Easyjet we can start to lobby them for more seats and lower prices.

Wink Flights plus Hotel cost almost less than flights

Got a deal from Thomas Cooke for 2 weeks in El Gouna in Dec for £700 all in B&B.

Flights would have cost about £600 with transfer so for another £100 for two got hotel as well.
