Major airlines begin move to Borg Al Arab for Alexandria flights

Qatar Airways is to transfer its Alexandria flights to the city's now showcase Borg El Arab Airport, effective March 27.

The Doha-based carrier is among a number of international airlines moving flights from the El-Nozha International Airport to Borg El Arab Airport forwhat it describes as "operational reasons."

The old city airport is to close for several years and Egyptian Airports are beginning to work with opertators to make the transition to the new airport - which will also be closer to the new city development, known as New Alexandria


The new airport is located approximately 50 kilometres from Alexandria city centre.
The airport consists of a new passenger building and an administration building. The passenger terminal is designed in the shape of a boat and consists of three floors. It was opened late last year.

 

Qatar Airways flies daily non-stop from its Doha hub to Alexandria. Today the airline said that all scheduled timings for the Alexandria flights remain the same. The carrier also flies to Cairo and Luxor.
