Founded in 1932, EGYPTAIR is one of the oldest airlines in the world. For more than nine decades, it has carried a clear mission: to ensure Egypt’s international connectivity and to support the development of a destination at the crossroads of history, culture, and the major dynamics of today’s tourism.
In EGYPTAIR’s name, it is a genuine honor to welcome you to Egypt — a land where history and the future meet, where travel is far more than just a move from one place to another: it is discoveries.
For more than nine decades, EGYPTAIR has carried the spirit of Egypt across the skies. We have linked continents, cultures, and communities, ensuring that Egypt remains not only a destination but a global crossroads.
Today, as the travel industry evolves, EGYPTAIR stands at the forefront of the major global trends. We are adopting a sustainability-minded approach, modernizing our fleet, and investing in digital innovation to meet the expectations of tomorrow’s travelers. We are expanding our connectivity network, linking Africa, Europe, the Middle East and beyond, so that Egypt stays within reach of the world.
Yet our mission goes further. We are proud to be the gateway to Egypt’s treasures — from the timeless monuments of Cairo and Luxor to the vibrant shores of the Red Sea. Each flight we operate is not just a journey; it is an invitation to discover Egypt’s culture, heritage, and hospitality.
The Pioneer Forum embodies the same vision as ours: to deepen knowledge, create opportunities, and anticipate the future of travel. Together, we shape a more connected, more sustainable, and more inspiring industry.
EGYPTAIR is not only Egypt’s national carrier; we are the ambassador of Egypt in the skies. And as you gather here to explore, learn, and build, know that EGYPTAIR will continue to carry this mission: welcoming the world to Egypt.

Un réseau pensé pour ouvrir l’Égypte au monde
The Cairo hub stands as a major geographic crossroads, located at the meeting point of Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. From this platform, EGYPTAIR operates a network of over 70 destinations across four continents, with a fleet of around 70 aircraft including the A350-900, Boeing 787 Dreamliner, B737 MAX 8, and the new-generation Airbus A320neo. The airline’s membership in Star Alliance extends this reach even further, offering travelers a wide array of connections and seamless service on a global scale.
For French tourism professionals, the offering is both concrete and competitive. EGYPTAIR operates up to 10 direct weekly flights between Paris-CDG and Cairo, with daily departures. With a flight time of about 4 hours and 30 minutes, Egypt proves to be a mid-range destination that is easily planable.
Once in Cairo, the domestic network takes over and connects the hub to Egypt’s key tourist destinations: Luxor, Aswan, Hurghada, and Sharm el-Sheikh. This integration between international flights and domestic coverage enables tour operators and travel agencies to build combined cultural and beach itineraries on a single network, simplifying both scheduling and ticketing.
In total, the Cairo hub serves more than 75 destinations across about fifty countries, with many connection opportunities via partner airlines and a consistent level of service worldwide.
Egypt is entering a new era. The Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM), at the foot of the Giza pyramids, is now the largest archaeological museum in the world — a major asset for the cultural segment. The Red Sea coastline continues to develop its high-end resort and diving offerings. New destinations are gaining visibility: Fayoum Oasis, Siwa, and El-Alamein, each offering options for travelers seeking authenticity and experiences less standardized.
This diversification calls for a parallel evolution of the airline network. For EGYPTAIR, the challenge is to adjust frequencies, develop new routes, and improve access to under-served areas, in line with Egypt’s national tourism strategy. The results speak for themselves: in 2025, Egypt reached a symbolic milestone with a historic record of international visitors, confirming the destination’s renewed appeal.
It is in this context that EGYPTAIR joins the Pioneer Forum 2026 as an official partner. The theme chosen for this edition, “Navigating Through Uncertainty,” naturally resonates with the experience of a national carrier that, for 94 years, has operated at the heart of a shifting geography and continually adapts its operations to guarantee Egypt’s connectivity with the rest of the world.
Thank you, and welcome aboard the journey of discovery.
