Egyptair is set to increase the frequency of its Cairo to Dublin service from four to five flights per week during the peak summer travel period, according to carrier’s website.

Effective from 4 July to 4 September, the enhanced schedule will be operated using a two-class Boeing 737-800 aircraft, accommodating 144 passengers with 24 seats in business class and 120 in economy.

The seasonal frequency boost comes as Egyptair continues to respond to growing demand on the route, which it launched in June 2022. Since its inception, the service has seen a variety of aircraft types deployed to match fluctuating market needs, including the 142-seat Airbus A320neo, the 182-seat Airbus A321neo, and the larger 309-seat Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner.
