Luxor summer flights from the UK

The summer season in Luxor for Nile Cruises as well as hotels has been dealt a bad blow with the cancellation of both the Monday flights from Gatwick on Easy Jet and Monarch.

Flights from other regional airports such as Manchester and Birmingham had already cut but these new cancellations will leave only the EgyptAir flight from Heathrow on a monday as well as the Thomson flights from Gatwick and Manchester on wednesdays.

This is obviously going to put more strain on the Nile Cruise market which is struggling to recover from the problems of 2011 but is a sign of the lack of faith the airlines have in Luxor.

Fingers crossed for the winter season.
