Frequently Asked Questions
Why direct flights from both cities instead of a geographic midpoint?
A map midpoint between Cairo and Edinburgh is usually a town neither of you can reach easily. We instead show real destinations both cities fly to directly, which is normally faster and cheaper than meeting at the literal halfway point.
