FT. Benning to Cairo in 31 hours
Notwithstanding the cheeky suggestion to consult a travel agent ...

I'll go ahead and post another routing question. I have a friend who needs to get from Columbus, GA (CSG) to Cairo Egypt (CAI) in 31 hours. The departure would need to be after 9pm on 23rd October and he must arrive in Cairo by 8am on Saturday 25 October.

The closest "big" airport to Columbus is ATL.

The only solution that I can find that comes close is fly Delta from ATL to LHR and connect to BA. But it leaves ATL at 10:20pm and it's not possible to drive from Columbus to ATL (90 mins) in time to make the flight.

Any suggestions? Drive to other airports nearby? Creative routings through Eastern Europe for the Middle East?
