Travel Essentials
CAI: EEST · PRG: CEST
When it's 6:00 PM in Cairo, it's 5:00 PM in Prague.
Egyptian passport holders require a Schengen visa to enter the Czech Republic. The visa allows stays of up to 90 days within a 180-day period and must be obtained from the Czech embassy in Cairo before travel. Passport must be valid for at least 3 months beyond the planned departure and issued within the last 10 years. The standard application fee is 80 EUR, with a processing time of 15 to 45 days.
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.
