[QUOTE=The 25th seems to be the way to do it, because arriving at 935am doesn't seem to be that much difference than arriving at 8am. And if they're expecting everything to run on a Switzerland-like schedule in Egypt, they've got another thing coming anyway.[/QUOTE]

Originally, I was simply hoping for flight scheduling assistance. I wanted to check if my searches on ITA were accurate or if I was missing an unusual route or airline - but your advice on Egyptian schedules and the assumption regarding the capacity of my friend to work after a long flight are just an added bonus I guess.

FYI - both my friend and I have worked in Egypt and are familiar with long haul travel. I guess I didn't find my UGS status in a Cracker Jack box after all. But, thanks anyway.
