If you land in cairo as a transit… If you land in cairo as a transit passenger then be prepared for rude obnoxious ground staff. Especially in security who talk to customers like peasants with contempt and in a condescending tone. No organisation its a complete shambles. They have 1 scanner and search customers causing them discomfort and also strip babies away from parents. Absolutely shocking kind of attitude and horrible nasty people. The flight itself was OK but the ground operations is pathetic .

Worst airline ever rude people Worst airline ever rude people I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction and distress regarding a recent incident that occurred during my travel with EgyptAir. , and I had a flight from Madrid to Abu Dhabi with a layover in Egypt. During my transit in Egypt, an employee named Mohamed Hisham Samir subjected me and my pregnant wife to a highly distressing and unacceptable ordeal. Mr. Samir demanded money from me in exchange for allowing me to board my connecting flight. When I refused, he threatened to prevent me from boarding the flight altogether. Despite having passed through Madrid with no issues regarding my baggage if i have issue they could stop me in my residence country madrid so i could do something this is prove i didn’t exceed my wight , Mr. Samir insisted that I pay $130 before allowing me to proceed. He even went as far as to demand that I return to the check-in counter before passport control, which was impossible given the circumstances of my transit. Throughout this ordeal, Mr. Samir displayed a reprehensible attitude, shouting and behaving aggressively towards me and my pregnant wife, who was left in tears due to his appalling conduct. Despite my attempts to reason with him and explain the illogical nature of his demands, he remained obstinate and refused to cooperate. Eventually, a finance representative intervened moments before my flight departure, coercing me into making payment via card without providing a receipt. Furthermore, Mr. Samir demanded sensitive personal information, such as my card details, adding to the already distressing nature of the situation. This entire experience was not only traumatic but also potentially harmful to the health and well-being of my pregnant wife and unborn child. It is utterly unacceptable for EgyptAir employees to engage in such behavior, especially towards passengers who have done nothing to warrant such treatment.

Sharks! As they refuse to offer the promised refund I turned to my credt card company. What a bunch of sharks! They don't deserve 1-star, but we can't give them less. They finally agreed that we were entitled to a refund for being downgraded when an Economy-only aircraft was substituted for our scheduled aircraft with a Business Class cabin and gave me the e-mail address of the London office to claim it. The e-mail was ignored, the follow-up letter was ignored, the report to the laughably-named 'We Care' (they really, really don't, so this title is world-class hypocrisy) was ignored. Therefore I put in a Section 75 claim to my credit card company. They have now refunded the difference, 'unless Egyptair prove that I'm not entitled to it, or refund me themselves'. They can't do the first and seem determined not to do the second. But how are these dishonest bandits allowed to be members of Star Alliance, which consists of otherwise reputable airlines? Never again with Egyptair, never, never.

Bait and switch Egyptair This airline is a scam. They practice bait and switch. I bought 2 tickets from Toronto canada to Beirut Lebanon. The reservation allows 2 checked in luggage for each person. At the check in counter they claimed that they changed their policy and only allowed one checked in luggage per passenger although the reservation clearly shows 2 luggage per passenger and they wouldn’t let us check in unless we pay $300 for the second luggage. We ended up paying $600 for the 2 additional luggage. This is clearly a highway robbery. The service was dismal and the staff was extremely rude and unprofessional! Stay away from this crooked airline at any cost.

Stay away at ALL costs I give one star, because you can't give zero stars They make it impossible to get a human being, on purpose (saves them $$) and they don't respond to emails Thier "customer service " is a joke I am currently stuck in Egypt, their website won't let me download my tickets - wr are supposed to leave tomorrow and their "customer service hotline- is an answering machine message that says they are closed.... Stay away at all costs
