Travel Agent, glad to hear that
30W, Hurghada has never been hugely popular with British tourists and its remained a hotspot for Russians and Germans. I have to agree El Gouna is a fantast divespot and resort.
As for Marsa Alam, the airport is expecting a 38% increase in numbers compared to 2004, with the Italians making up a whopping 93% of all passengers. As you said the resort is a little bare at the moment but the authorities have serious plans for the area not just a resort but also a commercial and residential centre.
ric180880, are you sure? It seems only 3 flights have been removed. Can you tell me which 7 routes you say are being removed?
