Visa & Entry

Egyptian passport holders can obtain a Turkey eVisa online for USD 20, valid for a single entry and a stay of up to 30 days. Travelers aged 20 to 45 must hold a valid sticker visa or residence permit from a Schengen country, the US, UK, or Ireland to qualify for the eVisa. Those under 20 or over 45 are exempt from that requirement. You must fly on Turkish Airlines, Pegasus Airlines, or EgyptAir. Passport must be valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry.

Getting to CAI

Cairo has no direct rail link to the airport yet. Metro Line 3 terminates at Adly Mansour station, still several kilometers short of CAI. From Adly Mansour, taxis or ride-hails cover the remaining distance in 15-20 minutes. Uber and Careem from downtown Cairo to the airport cost EGP 100-200 and take 45-60 minutes outside rush hour. Rush hour (7:00-10:00, 16:00-20:00) on the Ring Road can double that.

Yellow metered taxis charge EGP 150-300 depending on your starting point. Old black-and-white taxis lack meters, so agree on a price before getting in. CTA public buses 356, 400, and 1138 run from central Cairo to the airport (EGP 5-25) but are slow and crowded. Airport shuttle buses from major hotels cost EGP 25-50. For reliability, Uber or Careem with a pre-set fare is the path of least friction.
