EgyptAir plans direct flights between Singapore and Cairo from early 2027
The airline is planning to introduce the first direct flights between Singapore and Cairo from early 2027, giving Singapore a direct air link to North Africa.
EgyptAir, Changi Airport Group, and Sydney Airport have announced plans for direct flights between Singapore, Cairo, and Sydney, starting early 2027. This new service will allow travellers to fly directly from Cairo to Singapore and Sydney, with onward connections through EgyptAir's network in Africa, Europe, and the Middle East.
EgyptAir will operate the Airbus A350-900 aircraft for this proposed service, which aims to expand the airline's presence in the Asia-Pacific market. Currently, travellers flying from Singapore to Egypt must make at least one stop, such as in Bahrain, Dubai, or Doha. The new service would provide a direct air link to Cairo, strengthening economic and cultural ties between Egypt, Singapore, and Australia.
Cairo, Egypt's capital, is home to iconic sites like the Pyramids of Giza, the Grand Egyptian Museum, and the Nile River. The three parties have yet to announce specific flight schedules and fares, which will be released by EgyptAir at a later date.
