Zaazou, Minister of Tourism of Egypt, regarding the resolution of currency issues and international airlines’ repatriation of revenue from ticket sales

 
aTP-  Arab tourism portal-“Egypt’s economy and inward investment, and in particular our tourism industry, depend upon reliable, affordable flights to and from our key markets.
 

Given the importance of this issue, and following detailed discussions between the Central Bank of Egypt, the Egyptian Government, the Egypt Tourism Federation, our partners at international airlines and others, I am pleased we have reached an agreement that allows international airlines to continue operating to and from Egypt.

 
Egypt has committed to provide all visitors with a safe, secure and enjoyable experience, so we are working hard to enhance aviation security and create exciting new tourism offerings. This agreement will ensure our international airline partners can operate successfully in Egypt and meet the needs of visitors, business travellers, and the Egyptian people.”
