Air Arabia Egypt Launches Direct Flights Between Cairo and Istanbul

Let’s face it, we’ve all entertained the fever dream of packing our bags and escaping to Istanbul in search of our very own Mohanad. However, the harsh reality of exorbitant flight ticket prices quickly cut our hopes short. If you, like us, still find yourself daydreaming about living out forbidden love fantasies (or simply want to explore the beautiful city without losing an arm and a leg booking your flight), low-cost airline Air Arabia Egypt is launching non-stop direct flights from Cairo to Istanbul.

Starting April 2nd of this year, the newly added route will connect Sabiha Gökçen International Airport and Cairo International Airport with three affordable weekly flights on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays.

With this new addition, Air Arabia Egypt will now connect Cairo to more than 16 global destinations, including Sharjah, Bergamo, Muscat, Bahrain, Dammam, and Amman, along with Tabuk, Taif, and Jizan.
