via Minsk is expensive due to the fact that from Minsk to Egi it has always been expensive and the choice is not rich, Belarusians have always flown (for the most part) either through Moscow or through Kyiv. It is possible through the Schengen countries, where vouchers are much cheaper, but of course you need an open Schengen visa. The best option is now through Kyiv.

I know that earlier residents of Belgorod flew from Kharkov to Egypt and Turkey. Now, if there are no such flights, they will appear quite soon - Russian travel agencies organize the flow of those who wish to Egypt through Ukraine.
although you can stupidly buy a ticket to a Ukrainian company and go ahead.

Train moscow-Kyiv reserved seat from 3 tr. coupe from 5.4 tr. Trains arrive from midnight to 8 am. Anex tour is suitable if you spend a day in the city. Or plus spending on a hotel for a day. As an option, at the Boryspil airport. Taxi to Boryspil about 10 euros one way. Coral has daily flights. We are calm, come :)

No, gold will not come out.
Now very cheap hot tours to Egitet from Kyiv. Up to 150-200 bucks per person.
That is, it is advisable to buy a tour in a Ukrainian agency.
You go to St. Petersburg and then to your taste: air, railway or bus.
For example, the cheapest Ecoline route Peter-Kyiv, somewhere around 40 bucks.
Only you must have tickets and reservations. It is advisable to go with your family and tell the truth.
So that there are no unnecessary questions at the border.
And then too many guys aged 18-30 began to come to "rest" and "to relatives" in Ukraine.
Even with these extras. spending the trip will be cheaper than ever before.

You can buy a tour online. They give the account number, you transfer money and send scans of passports.
There is air communication between Ukraine and Russia, they only fly through Minsk. This is an additional 3 hours on the road, in terms of money - almost the same as it was. The cost of Kyiv-Moscow (both ways) via Minsk is about $220. Yes, there used to be cheap Transaero flights ($80 one way) to Kyiv-Zhulyany, but they disappeared along with Transaero...

Guys, thanks for the replies! It’s really expensive from Minsk yesterday, the agency called an exorbitant amount, and this is in the absence of an influx of Russian tourists. We are told that the hotels are half empty, and for some reason prices have skyrocketed in Minsk. Is it possible for us to gather a group of people who want to swim in November-December and rush through Moscow to Kyiv in Sharm? Let's unite, otherwise it's somehow dumb.

Boris_42 I highly doubt that you will gather a group of people who want to, Russians are afraid to go to Ukraine, they, very many, have a strong opinion regarding the situation in this country, inspired by television, read on the Internet, stories of acquaintances, to whom another acquaintance said ..., to convince these people, that everything is normal, calm and safe (with the exception of the problematic regions of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions) - an ungrateful and stupid occupation, people only hear themselves, - those who understand that everything is wrong in this country - how it is presented, those they will sit down and calmly go through Kyiv to rest in their beloved and budgetary Egypt. Put aside your stirrup and go swimming and sunbathing under the Egi sun!

Are you sure that you will be allowed into Ukraine? Ten months ago, in January 2015, we went to Ukraine. Train Moscow-Poltava. At the border, they put a stamp on me right away, my husband (52 years old) was interrogated (where, why, why there is no invitation, give a copy of your grandmother's passport, etc.). The price of the issue is 3000 rubles.

From Moscow to Hurghada or Sharm, you can easily fly round-trip at a price of $ 240 and do not cross the borders of other states and waste time. Pegasus Airlines Moscow Domodedovo - Istanbul - Sharm 8 hours, back 24 hours. Moscow House-in-Istanbul-Hurghada 10 hours, back 24 hours. The issue with the purchase of vouchers in hotels is solved without problems. Russian tourists who have bought tours to Egypt are currently solving their problems in the same way.

Correcting the mistake, the return flight from Sharm and Hurghada to Moscow is 12-13 hours. There are similar flights from Kharkov, for residents of Russian regions.

Isn't it easier to buy a ticket to Hurghada from Moscow, but by airlines of other countries? Time is definitely more comfortable.

Pegasus is a real option. But
- only five flights a week from Moscow, and they fly to Istanbul not only for transfers to Egypt;
- like any low-cost airline with a minimum fare, there will always be a limited number of seats;
- minimum fare with restrictions - no baggage and 8 kg hand luggage, no meals;
- on November 15, even such the cheapest tariff is already for 400 dollars.
Although a good option, but not for the mass tourist.

Most likely, it will not work to buy a tour of Egypt in a Russian agency, even with a departure from Kyiv, since there are recommendations (read the ban) of the Russian government for the sale of tours. Book a tour in Ukraine travel agency. Pay, as already written, according to the invoice ..
BUT! When an insured event occurs, there may be problems with payments (some insurance companies work only with citizens of Ukraine). Or buy insurance in the Russian Federation.
I read that insurance companies of the Russian Federation are allowed not to cover the insurance costs of "cunning" tourists who fly to Egypt through third countries.

Not certainly in that way.
This paragraph of the decree reads as follows:
"Recommend to tour operators and travel agents for the duration of the
of the prohibition established by paragraph 1 of this Decree, to abstain
from the sale to citizens of a tourism product that provides
air transportation (including commercial) of citizens from the territory
Russian Federation to the territory of the Arab Republic of Egypt."
Key phrase: "from the territory of the Russian Federation"
The Russian agencies also have no technical problem. They can book tours departing from other countries in their booking system with those operators who operate in these other countries. And pay these to their local operators. Those. with the Russian TezTour you can book tours with a departure from Kyiv and pay for them to the Russian TezTour.

There are no bans on the flights of Russian airlines, there are no bans on the sale of tours / tickets of airlines of other countries, the whole question is in the price and time costs. About allowing insurance companies to not cover something there - this, excuse me, is fiction.

The Federal Air Transport Agency banned Egypt Air from operating flights on the Cairo-Moscow route from November 14. The airline authorities motivated the ban on Egypt Air flights to Russia by the lack of an aviation security program, which is mandatory for all foreign air carriers, Interfax reports, citing an unnamed source at Domodedovo airport.
Egypt Air is actually the only air carrier between the Russian Federation and Egypt. The company flies three times a week from Cairo to Moscow.
In addition, according to RIA Novosti, Aeroflot suspends flights to/from Egypt from December 1. A phased reduction in the flight program and a temporary suspension of flights between Moscow and points in Egypt are planned until the end of the winter schedule on March 27, 2016.

Yes, politics is a huge millstone, everything will grind. Okay, this is a digression.
Pegasus or Turkish Airline fly from Moscow with a transfer in Istanbul, you can get to us)))) you can book a hotel on the Internet, there are no problems at all. If you are already afraid to fly through Kyiv, this is an option. Prices in Minsk have always been higher than from Kyiv or Moscow, but here Belavia dictates monopoly prices for tickets (((((
You can even book a hotel through any agency and organize the flight yourself. Of course, Pegasus will be easier and you will have to dangle less and only one transplant.

Or maybe it's better for Ukrainian tour operators not to get involved with Russian tourists? After all, then the terrorists will start blowing up Ukrainian planes, knowing that Russians are flying there. After all, the Russians have our Crimea, so let them go there to rest.
