EGYPT
Cairo
Egypt is famous for its rich historical relics and the Pyramids of
Giza, one of the seven wonders of the world. Located at the northeastern
part of Africa, the country is mostly desert with cities and settlements
located along the famous River Nile, the world’s longest river.
Of the country’s 72 million population, 18 million live in Cairo,
the capital city and the largest city in the Middle East.
SIA started flying to Cairo in November 1984 with a weekly B747 passenger
service. Today, Cairo is served by three weekly B777-300 services
and six staff members with Hany Wahba as the Cargo Manager. Our GSA
for Cairo is Far East Travels & Tours.
Fresh fruits, vegetables, textiles, crystal products and carpets are
major commodities carried on SIA Cargo’s Cairo services.
An unforgettable shipment that the station once handled was a shipment
of ancient Egyptian relics to Australia that was insured for US$50
million! |
