Russians won’t have exclusive terminal at Hurghada airport -Hurghada airport general manager
RUSSIAN TOURISTS WILL NOT GET an exclusive passenger terminal at Hurghada Airport, said the airport’s general manager has said, according to a report in Russia’s Sputnik. An unnamed source from the Civil Aviation Authority had earlier told Youm7 that Terminal Two would be allocated exclusively for Russian flights at the request of a Russian security delegation; that story was also picked up by Pravda. The source had also said that flights from Russia to Hurghada are reportedly set to resume in October, with charter flights due to restart in November. There’s been no confirmation or denial on the last point, and the same source is claiming that the Russian security delegation was basically satisfied with security procedures at Hurghada airport. We had noted yesterday that an agreement to resume flights from Russia is imminent, albeit gradually and with provisions on security measures that Egypt must guarantee.
