Before Easter, a new double charter operation for flights to Egypt will commence as SamaTravel and Air Europa have entered into a cooperation agreement.
From Madrid to Cairo
As per the agreement, SamaTravel is set to enhance its airline services from Madrid, Spain by launching exclusive new flights to Egypt’s Capital Cairo. Starting from Monday, April 3, these flights will depart from Madrid every week, positioning itself as “the primary provider of cultural tourism to Egypt from Spain.”
The flights are scheduled to arrive in Cairo and depart from Luxor, or vice versa, enabling travelers to plan an eight-day itinerary, with three nights in the Egyptian capital and four nights exploring the Nile.
Flights from Spain to Abu Simbel
The Spanish tour operator is set to promote direct international flights to Abu Simbel, which has previously only been known for its domestic flights. By being the first company worldwide to operate from this airport, Spain will also become the first country to offer direct international flights to Abu Simbel.
EgyptAir, the primary airline of Egypt, has scheduled flights departing from several cities in Spain starting on Thursday, April 6.
