The service is a bit impersonal. That doesn’t bother me but may bother some. Not rude, just a real “we don’t care that you’re here”

The plane was so hot that I was sweating throughout the entire flight. As a result the liquid provided was not enough and remainder thirsty thru the entire flight. The meals were nice. If anything you provided to much food.

Bad service from the outside office that I couldn’t reach to resolve the schedule issue. They never reply email or calls for days. But they finally resolve at the day we fly home inside the airport.

Flew business class with Egypt Air. Didn't feel much of a business class experience aside from the fact that you can flatten your seat. The food was just okay-too salty overall, seat wasn't comfortable when put into bed position.

Letting us know our 8am flight would be 3 hours late, every flight of theirs was late by hours. Seems like it’s the same everyday. We could have slept in another couple hours easily instead of coming to the airport at 6am.

Missed connection due to a 1,5 hours delay on the first flight, resulting in 24 hours delay to destination. Poor assistance at the airport. Long wait with not even internet connection. Awful experience.

All and all it was an easy flight. We were in business class. Strangely, while we were offered some food which we did not want, we were never offered anything to drink including water. The boarding process was a bit chaotic. Everyone had to identify there bags at the plane as a safety precaution which was fine. But the communications about this was non existent. Israel has a very strict protocol for entry. There is an entry form that must be filled in and then, if everything is ok, you get an e-mail approval that you must show to the airline. Instead of asking for this they asked to see our “green passport” which is only a document to be used in Israel. Luckily, we had copies of ours. All of this is not significant. As someone that lives in Israel but love Egypt, I am so happy that we have direct flights now.

Flight delayed about 45 minutes. Notifications within SSH airport were virtually nonexistent. Had to recognize on our own that our gate was flipped with the next one over. No visible signage changes, no announcements (that we could hear), and both planes boarded simultaneously. Confusing, but we figured it out. Otherwise all was fine.

Overview of Egypt Air
Commencing services in 1933, EgyptAir is the oldest airline in the Middle East. It operates out of a hub in Cairo, with flights reaching Europe, Asia, Africa, South America and North America. It is recognized as the national flag carrier of Egypt and is wholly owned by the government. Routes are available to more than 45 countries with some of the most frequented including Saudi Arabia, Nigeria and the United Arab Emirates.
EgyptAir is a member of Star Alliance, offering a wide-reaching network of connected services through partnerships with United Airlines, Turkish Airlines, Air Canada and Air China, among others. It also holds codeshare agreements with additional carriers, such as Etihad Airways and Gulf Air, to increase the amounts of flights offered within the Middle East. A number of subsidiaries are aligned with the airline, including Air Cairo, Air Sinai and EgyptAir Express.
The fleet is made up of Boeing and Airbus planes, with a preference for narrow-body, short-distance jets. Models like the Boeing 737-800 and Airbus A320 are commonly flown. A falcon head features on the tail of the aircraft, which is a tribute to Egyptian mythology figure Horus. Many planes in the fleet have special decorations celebrating things such as the Egyptian National Football Team, Africa Cup of Nations tournament and 85 years of EgyptAir service.
Customers can choose between Economy and Business Class. In the Business section passengers are provided with an amenity kit that has socks, eyeshades and headphones. During evening flights, the lights are dimmed and a star pattern is projected onto the roof of the cabin.
