High Euro Means Egypt Will Offer Better Value

A few days ago, the Pound hit an all time low against the Euro which prompted Federation of Tour Operators director-general, Andy Cooper to state that the exchange rate would affect operators deals with hotels, transfer companies and handling companies. The effect won’t be immediate but prices for 2009 could increase by £35 per person on accommodation.

Destinations outside the Eurozone will benefit from the exchange rate. Families are already comfortable with travelling to destinations such as Egypt and as a result of the strength of the Euro, Egypt will become an even more popular destination.

Nile Cruises followed with a resort offer an excellent combination of culture and relaxation and with the introduction of budget airline Easyjet flying to Sharm el Sheikh and Hurghada, holidaymakers will also find it easier to introduce flexibility into their holiday duration instead of the regular 7 or 14 nights.
