Ride, do not be afraid, there were no hostilities in the resort towns and I hope there will not be! Food is not produced in Cairo to supply hotels, so these are already "fantasies" of people who do not go anywhere and envy others. They will feed, there will be sun, there will be sea, only until everything falls into place, it will be boring without people, who were taken out. Now only the British are there, they were not taken out. Choose good hotels that fill up quickly, good mood and go!

if you are afraid - go to Sharm, gangs of rebels and marauders will not get there. The road is one from Cairo and there are several checkpoints on it.

This is our job, to know everything not from the "yellow press", but from living sources - people who came from vacation, friends and colleagues living in Egypt. Planes for February 26 and 27 from Kyiv are already full, so the first ones who returned on March 5 can share with you with my experiences. As for sharks, they have always been and will be. With a child, go to Hurghada, there are the best beaches.

From primary sources from partners from Hurghada: everyone is very, very, very waiting for the arrival of tourists, especially on the eve of the "Russian season", i.e. March-May. The hotels are half-empty, the streets are deserted. But everything is really calm there in terms of security: the first signs of rallies were cut down in the bud. All local businessmen just pray for tourists. And they are very worried about their return. So they are waiting for you there - Ezhayte! And with a child really in Hurghada will be much more comfortable.

http://news.yandex.ua/yandsearch?cl4url=www.rbc.ua%2Frus%2Fnewsline%2Fshow%2Fmid-ne-otmenyaet-rekom This is the official statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine dated February 22, 2011. And the fact that many have written here is the yellow press! Because, unlike the Foreign Ministry, they are not responsible for their words.

RBC-Ukraine, 02/22/2011, Kyiv, 13:38
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) does not cancel its recommendations to citizens of Ukraine to refrain from traveling to Egypt. This was stated by Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Dikusarov, RBC-Ukraine reports.
According to him, the flight scheduled for Saturday from Odessa to Egypt is "premature, since we have not canceled our recommendations regarding trips to Egypt for tourist purposes."
According to him, citizens who book tours to Egypt through a single travel operator "do this, in fact, at their own peril and risk, not realizing the events that are taking place in neighboring countries ... we believe that citizens of Ukraine should refrain from visiting resorts in Egypt, so this recommendation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs remains.

This is the "yellow" press (one woman said!) Go to the website of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry and get acquainted with the latest statements and comments! And what media correspondents collect (something you need to write about), then you still need to check who said what to whom. Why is your link not available?

Citizens of Belarus fly to Egypt from Kyiv, and use the offers of tour operators with a departure from Kiev. And you, dear, check your links if you want to say something to people. And none of your links work.

Comrades, don’t swear!!! That’s why people ask questions on the forum in order to find out the truth and not rumors from the media, TV, etc. They definitely say here: from what sources of infa, some returned from there, some communicate directly. .. Everyone draws a conclusion for himself and makes a decision personally.

Comrades, we have already experienced the first wave of this hysteria. It was hysteria. No conclusions were made.
Fans of quotes from the Internet are still quoting. I already asked, what is your motivation for quoting. Didn't get a clear answer. Everyone understands the motivation of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs will never say - it's safe to fly. Everyone who flew to Egypt in early February - everyone returned and everyone is happy. Those who did not fly, ALL regret it and some got money. This is our personal experience and read the reviews of real people.
Anyone who is interested in tours to Egypt, my advice. If you are very worried about the situation in Cairo, Libya, etc. - do not buy tours to Egypt. Wait for Turkey, it will be warm in the sea in mid-May.
Those who cannot reschedule vacation dates, want to swim and sunbathe in March and cannot add $ 700 per person to the trip budget - book Egypt.
Today, three operators from Ukraine have already announced the resumption of the charter program. Elections will be only in half a year.

We live in a free country! Everyone decides to fly or not. No one will persuade you. But with this statement, the Foreign Ministry has relieved itself of all responsibility for your safety. So it's up to you to decide. But you will be the one to deal with it if something happens. And for the Belarusians, it’s your dad who only speaks the truth, and we believe the press secretary of the Foreign Ministry Alexander Dikusarov.

Share the latest information on Hurghada! All the latest discussions are mainly related to the revival of tourism in Sharm. And in Hurghada, most of the hotels probably closed until better times ...

I just observe that not only in this issue miki08 opposes himself to society, does not have his own personal position, but only refers to other people's statements and showered us with non-existent links here. The fact that flights to Egypt were stopped has long been recognized by smart heads as a mistake and now they are correcting mistakes with high prices for tours, since you can’t pay back with any high prices to carry tourists one way and return empty. All these first flights will be at a loss to tour operators, due to the hysteria of some, tourists are paying! And we, the Belarusians, listen to the father and have our heads on our shoulders, which I wish you too!

I support miki08. She herself heard Dikusarov's speech.
I really understand the position of travel agents: "Everything is fine at the resorts, shops are open, banks are also working, everyone is looking forward to tourists."
But!! If new unrest begins (and this is likely, since the political situation is not stable, power is temporarily in the hands of the military), then no one will send planes for tourists, at the expense of the state, the Foreign Ministry recommended refraining from visiting Egypt.
And also Tatyana, on this site they give answers, mainly travel agents, their advice can be predicted in advance. Rely only on yourself.

1. There are only two active travel agents on this site. Me and Oreste. And we are not even included in the list of experts of the month - see the starting questions and answers. Do not offend your brothers.
2. We respond actively to the question about the situation in Egypt, because tourist experts can answer based on personal experience. And they don't have a February experience. They can only quote the media. We face this situation every day. Clients call, worry, fly away, fly in, refuse, we call Egypt and return home. For example, during this period, my personal friends flew away twice, to whom we arranged the tour.
3. My position is clearly described above. We do not persuade anyone to fly.
4. We do not persuade anyone to buy tours from us.
5. Why do we answer? Because you are asking questions. And in response they give you quotes from the media and the Foreign Ministry. According to the media, there were pogroms in Hurghada, there was an attack on the Hilton Plaza, there was nothing to feed in the hotels, the shops were empty, 5,000 prisoners escaped from prisons, a drunk tourist jumped from a pontoon and killed a shark, etc. Based on the data of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, then for the next six months, until elections are held in Egypt, it will not be recommended to fly there.

6. At the expense of the state, tourists were not returned. They took our citizens out of Cairo, those who were on consular records there. And first of all the family members of our diplomats.
7. None of the participants in the process wants their tourists to have problems. It's too expensive and annoying.
