We all like to travel. If you live in Egypt, traveling with EgyptAir is a necessary rite of passage. Navigating through some of its drawbacks is sometimes necessary to be able to have a truly enjoyable flight. That’s why we’ve worked up a list of all the things you should know about while flying with EgyptAir! 

1- Always Order the Chicken! 

Trust me on this. If you’re flying EgyptAir, you’ll do yourself a huge favor if you order chicken. Some people forgo eating on planes altogether but if you do decide to eat, order the chicken. The quality of the meat can be really tough, and fish can go bad if kept out for too long. The chicken is always a solid choice.airplane-food

2- Invest In a Membership Card

An EgyptAir Membership Card can prove to be quite useful; you enjoy many benefits when you become a member. The more flights and miles you travel with them, the better the benefits which include access to their business lounge and even the ability to carry extra baggage.tumblr_musbrjuCZd1s0xjvpo1_500

3- Tuesday Ticket Buy 

It’s said that the cheapest time to buy a ticket is Tuesday at 3 PM Eastern Time, which is around 9 PM Cairo time. This is because the cheapest seats on the market place are sold at that time.giphy

4- Book A Late-Night Flight

Egypt’s airport is pretty packed. If you really want to avoid all the hassle of waiting in lines, make sure to book a late night flight so that you can avoid all the crowding at the airport and fall asleep on the plane! tumblr_mmem5msxgg1r3kb9mo1_500

5- Order Food on Return Flights

If you’re wary of EgyptAir’s catering, order your food on return flights since the catering is mostly handled by the host country. If you’re returning from France, for instance, the catering will be from France. And although airplane food isn’t the best, the food might taste a little bit better. PortugalMar13142
