Hi y'all

Well we're back. We survived Egypt Air - Kuala Lumpur to Cairo return. Pros and Cons of using Egypt Air:

Pros: 1. We arrived in Cairo one hour early
2. Decent leg room

Cons: 1. Our return flight to KL was 2 hours late. Luckily we did not have a connecting flight.
2. No in seat entertainment.
3. Food was ordinary: in all fairness it was no different to the normal muck served in economy
4. No water or soap in wash room

Verdict: if Egypt Air is offerring that cheap flight you're looking for then that carrier should be considered. Personally? I would save the extra bucks up and go with a quality carrier.

interesting discussion..... im going to fly with Egypt Air as well probably, since its the difference between a 1100 euro ticket or a 500 euro one... for that difference I can spent more nights on my destination so I think its definately worth it

People do a little research find out what kind of aircraft EgyptAir or any airline, you choose, is using for your destination... We knew it was going to be the their new 777/300 plane and I was not disappointed.
