If you take this trip, beware that compartments are booked well in advance in the time before, during and just after the hajj . Hajj of 1997 is over by the middle of May, as heavy travelling is concerned. Most of these have Cyprus as last port on the trip to Alexandria or Port Said. Greece is a common place to start this journey, but prices are a bit at the high-end. Egypt is well served by all major air carriers, and there are frequent connections to the entire world.
Discounted tickets are far more difficult to obtain when in Egypt, than from a Western country.
