Captain Tawfik Assy, Chairman and CEO of EgyptAir Holding Company, ordered to run a flight on October 16th that takes off from Hurghada International Airport to Jeddah Airport in KSA. This flight is to transfer 261 pilgrims from Red Sea province.
This came in the light of the company attempt to provide comfortable service for the clients and the pilgrims. The Minister of Civil Aviation, Samir Embaby, has responded to the demands of Red Sea residents to operate pilgrimage flights directly from Hurghada to the Holy Land; instead of Luxor Airport.
Captain Tawfik Assey stated that for the first time the Red Sea pilgrims will directly travel from the nearest airport, Hurghada Airport, since EgyptAir has worked in pilgrimage and Umrah.
EgyptAir always attempts to comfort its clients, and it’s ready to discuss all proposals that are in the interest of pilgrims, Captain Assey added.
