## Egypt at a glance

- **Wallet currency:** EGP
- **Hub:** Cairo and Hurghada
- **Portal languages:** English and Arabic
- **Suggested template:** Cruise for Nile programmes; Inbound where the destination leads.

## How the trade works

Egyptian inbound is dominated by fixed itineraries — Cairo, Luxor, Aswan, the Red Sea — sold through agents in Europe, the Gulf and Asia. Because those itineraries repeat, the operators who win are the ones whose agents can self-serve the standard programme and only call about the exceptions.

## What operators here are loading

Nile cruises sold by cabin and departure, city and resort hotels, guided excursions with per-person age bands, and long-distance transfers between Cairo, Alexandria and the Red Sea coast.

## Worth knowing

Arabic is available as a portal language, right to left, alongside English.

## A fixed-departure product and a currency that moves

The Nile cruise is unusual in that the accommodation departs. A boat leaves Luxor or Aswan on set days, runs a fixed itinerary, and cannot be sold as an open-dated room — it is closer to a group departure with cabins than to a hotel. Around it sits a classic Cairo–Luxor–Aswan circuit with guides and entrance fees, and a separate Red Sea resort business at Hurghada and Sharm that behaves like a beach market.

The Egyptian pound has moved sharply and repeatedly in recent years, and that is a commercial fact rather than a background one. It is why many Egyptian operators quote inbound business in euros or dollars while paying local suppliers in pounds, and why the currency your agents hold a balance in is a decision worth making deliberately rather than by default.

Egypt also sells heavily to European charter markets, which means fixed-date capacity and a lead time set by flights rather than by demand.

## What that needs from a portal

A currency chosen on purpose, and departures that are dates rather than stock.

- **One wallet currency, chosen at setup and then permanent**, so the ledger stays reconcilable — pick the one your agents actually settle in.
- **Fixed departures with real capacity**, sold per seat or per cabin, counting down as they sell.
- **Cost beside the sell price** on the same screen, so a margin written in one currency and paid in another is visible rather than discovered.
- **Guides and entrances as priced options**, not free text on a voucher.
