Maybe. Now there are negotiations on this issue. But Russians still fly to Egypt through Ukraine, Belarus or Turkey.
аватар salut0805
True, this is Turkey, Tunisia, etc. But Egypt is unlikely to come from Russia until next autumn

In light of the latest terrorist attack, it is very doubtful. On the contrary, Rostourism urged to refrain from independent trips there.
аватар travelsita
Not true. The decision has not yet been made. Friday's attack, for sure, will affect the decision.
аватар Svetochka.linnik73
Thanks to everyone, I thought so too. TA offers us to book for January while the prices say normal, otherwise Russia will fly and the prices will rise. Well, we don’t know what to do. In principle, the prices for January are not very small.
аватар Superoper73
Officially very unlikely. But who really wants to, even now rides there at least twice a year. In terms of the safety of flights and airports, practically nothing has changed there, plus the terrorists will now crawl there from Syria. In short nafik!

Russian tour operators have long refocused on other countries that have replaced Egypt
For example, from Moscow to Hainan Island to a 4 * hotel for 1 week 2 people will cost about $ 1600, Cuba $ 2000, Hainan and Cuba are much more interesting than Egypt
and a 4* hotel in Cuba and Hainan is different from Egyptian 4* or even 5* hotels

Can you please tell me what you mean by good prices? I have been to Egypt 9 times. good prices after the New Year were 36-45 thousand rubles. himself before the ban on flights was in Melia Sinai for 54 thousand. All this in 10-12 days. Now I was looking at prices with flights from Belarus on average 85-95 thousand. I personally am not ready to pay that kind of money for Egypt

Unfortunately, the cancellation of flights from Russia is completely unrelated to airport security, this is a purely political reason. Therefore, no matter how much you would like air traffic to be opened, it will be unlikely, at least in the near future. You can always fly through Belarus, Ukraine or Turkey .

for angik007 in Melia Sinai Cyrene Grand Hotel (Ex. Melia Sharm) for 11 days 2 adults from Kyiv tours 850$

Just in case, a question was asked from Kharkov.
1. It is clear that there was a reason not to open flights all winter.
2. The question, of course, is not about a terrorist attack somewhere in the north of Sinai. Turkey was closed and opened without any improvement in security issues.
3. We planned to start from Cairo. This is a marker. So there will be a reason to talk only after Cairo. So far, prices will be formed without the participation of the tourist flow (stream) from the Russian Federation.

it turns out that prices from Ukraine remained at the same level, and the Belarusian brothers took advantage of the situation and doubled their commissions. going to beloved Egypt is not profitable. in September, they offered me Rehan to fly from Vitebsk for 87 thousand. but we flew to the Dominican Republic for 2 thousand dollars for 12 days. Now the prices are about the same. so I plan in January Vietnam for 9 days all inclusive for 1400 dollars

And from December 1, visas to the Emirates are cancelled. The President promised. :)

Vika284, What is your statement based on? Have you been to Hainan? Why is Hainan more interesting than Egypt, given that 90% of tourists choose Egypt for fish and a short flight? And what is the difference between Hainan hotels and Egyptian hotels?
аватар Vika284
NatashaS No, I have not been to Hainan or China, but I have some plans, especially after reading the stories of one beautiful girl about China https://www.turpravda.ua/cn/blog-274842.html
in Hainan and how eastern Hawaii is also interested in visiting the park with the mysterious name Deer turned his head, the center of Nianshan Buddhism and the temple where the statue of the mythological goddess from pure gold is located, the pearl and silk factory, the artificial Phoenix Island. The list is big more tea, exotic food, fruits

According to the difference between hotels, 5-star hotels in the UAE and Egypt also differ

Someone wrote that the Russians will be able to fly to Turkey and Tunisia, this year I rested in Alanya in April and Russia rests there without any problems, and last month (October) I rested in Tunisia (Monastir) and there Russia has a great rest without problems.
аватар Vika284
Russian citizens have always rested in Tunisia without problems, even Tunisia has removed visa restrictions for them if they fly in transit through another country, Russian TOs have always had tours there even in the winter months, we have the end already in October for tours to Tunisia and start in May . It seems that only this year there will be tours once a week. In Russia, several operators offer tours to Tunisia, we have one, in the summer 2 MOTs work with Tunisia

Sorry for offtopic, but nobody tried Morocco as an alternative to Egypt? How is it in general? Judging by the lack of news from this country, there have been no terrorist attacks or revolutions lately.
аватар Veronika7081
It is very unlikely that from 01/01/18 Egypt will be open for charters from the Russian Federation. In the 2017 season for many Russians, it was Turkey that became the magic wand with "all inclusive": they started flying in April and ended in November. I do not agree about the exotic - it is not very accessible for the middle class and not only in terms of cost, but also in terms of duration / convenience of the flight and is comparable to services - "price-quality".
аватар Veronika7081
ollennka, Morocco is not an alternative to Egypt both in terms of the duration of the flight and the development of mass tourism. Although, of course - a very interesting country. My colleague's daughter has been living there for quite a long time. They always fly to Ukraine with a transfer.
аватар ollennka
When you talk about the duration of the flight here, do not forget that Russia is not only Moscow and its environs. For me, it takes 7 hours to fly from Novosibirsk to Bangkok, or to Egypt. And to Antalya 6 hours. And for the inhabitants of the Far East, Turkey will be more exotic than Vietnam and Thailand.
аватар ollennka
serna7081, but the sea is warm there, there is eastern exoticism. I don’t know about corals, maybe there are also?
аватар Vika284
I wouldn’t say that about Morocco, the weather is not so comfortable in winter, there are charters from Kyiv in summer, tourism is very developed there, there are many tourists from Portugal and Spain, France, Great Britain, from the USA and Canada, for some reason there are a lot of Brazilians. there are few offers in Morocco on the Ukrainian market
For flights from Morocco to Kyiv, Air France is very convenient, with a transfer, but at times everything is OK
аватар Vika284
at the time of transfer everything is OK

We were in Essaouira in Morocco, we went with a male company especially for surfing cards, surfing on the ocean is impressive
аватар kolyan_cat
I was in Morocco for work in the winter. The ocean is cold, almost no one swims. Well, that is, we would swim in such water in the Black Sea, and I bought it for show, but for the locals it’s cold.
A flight from Air France with a change in Paris is unreasonably expensive - about 700 USD. for one, therefore, as for me, even for this reason, Morocco cannot be an alternative to Egypt if there are no charters.
аватар Vika284
kolyan_cat for December there are round-trip tickets Kyiv Casablanca 240USD Air France
on an alternative to Egypt, I agree here, and especially in winter, and at prices too
Svetochka.linnik73 do not wait until the opening, travel now, for example
known advertised MOT Reef Oasis beach at the beginning of December offer $ 680 for 2 people for a week
аватар kolyan_cat
Damn, I flew for 700.

Morocco is definitely not an alternative to Yegi, although the country is insanely interesting !!!, you don’t particularly buy it for two reasons - the Atlantic Ocean is there, with all the attendant nuances, we were last five years ago - even in June there was quite cool water, it seems 21, massive tourism is not very developed (as in Egi), there is no all-inclusive (at least in most hotels, as far as I know), and in winter in Egi, according to the weather, it’s definitely more comfortable!
