It's cheap enough, but I'm not sure we would risk getting stuck in an airport in Egypt in late June!! The kids would be unbearable... and with a package flight there seems to be a higher risk of a few folks settling into the bar and delaying departure!

That looks good, but a quick search shows prices from Dublin to Cairo as more expensive than to Luxor. It really is difficult to get anything decent flying out of Ireland
(Lots of sympathy required for myself & Lyndsay

Hmmm... I
really don't fancy that... although if it was only 30 minutes it wouldn't be too bad.
Thanks for all your efforts Queenie. I think we're pretty much stuck with what we have this year. Hopefully there will be more available next year
