New Routes to Egypt
Luxor: A Cultural Haven
Starting 11 November, easyJet will operate flights to Luxor from London Gatwick with departures twice weekly on Mondays and Thursdays.

In addition, easyJet holidays will offer a new river cruise package to Luxor, featuring seven-night Nile River cruises in partnership with Jaz Hotels and Resorts. This unique travel experience includes breathtaking views of the Nile, green fields, and desert mountains, sailing from Luxor to Edfu and Aswan, and back. Luxor hotels, ranging from 4* to 5*, are also available, providing luxurious accommodations close to major attractions.
