More flights laid on for expats in Egypt

Posted 17 Apr 2009

British TEFL teachers living in Egypt should benefit from an increase in air routes home, it has been suggested.

Rick Green, chief executive of the Globespan Group, explains the rising number of British people purchasing houses in Egypt is fueling a surge in flight services.

In addition, the country remains a popular destination for travellers, who can also sustain the growth.

Mr Green says: "More Brits are buying property in Egypt which, as a low cost provider, helps us develop our route network planning and also as a leisure provider for the beach and culture market."

He adds Sharm el Sheikh and Hurghada are among the organisation’s most popular destinations – tips that may interest TEFL teachers eyeing an Egyptian move in the near future.

Flyglobespan recently announced a new Saturday service from Glasgow to Sharm El Sheikh and a Wednesday winter service to Hurghada, also from Glasgow.
