You may have been out to Hurghada before but the airport gets changed around regularly. When you first enter the airport DO NOT follow the crowd. They will be being ushered to the booths to get their Visas. Instead go immediately to the bank kiosks (you may have to move a rope similar to what banks and post offices have). The bank Kiosks can change money and also issue Visas. The visa is $25. If you have US dollars then use them. Once you have the Visa in your passport then bypass the tour operators queues and go straight to passport control. There may be a queue here and this is in our opinion being done on purpose so they can sell you a VIP transit through the airport. Please don't waste your money. You can either wait there or wait at the carousel. Nobody will be out any earlier and you may still have to wait for the others when you get out. When you get through passport control you enter the baggage hall. If you need a trolley then they are to your right as you get off the escalator. Just help yourself and if anyone tries to get any money from you tell them NO nice and loud. There are digital signs informing you which carousel to go to and there are signs at each carousel saying which flight has it's luggage on that carousel. Don't believe the signs. Follow the crowd that have tour reps with them. If you need the bathrooms, they are free and will usually have an official sign saying "No Money" this is often covered up by one that is home made saying "Thank You". Again just say NO. Once you get your bags, make your way out through customs. If you get stopped, you will be asked what you have in your bags. Tell them it's diving equipment and then they will ask you how many computers you have as they are looking for people illegally importing diving computers Saying one is all you need do and everything else is a bottom timer. They have now increased security at airports which means that they may scan your bags on your entry into Egypt. If you want to pass by Duty Free you can buy alcohol, however you are better buying in your home country as it's cheaper and you have more choice.
