LON>EGYPT>Dubai PCR requirement
Hi - hoping someone with knowledge can advise. we will be going from lon to cairo for 4 days and then cairo to dubai for 7 days. Will we need pcr test from egypt to dubai or as we are british passport holders just need to show proof of vaccination?

Rules of the country of departure apply. So when you take your flight to DXB from CAI, you're considered flying from Cairo. You'll need a test (most likely done in Cairo) if DXB requires tests for passengers coming from Egypt (this, I do not know, worth checking on Emirates website or similar. It might be that test requirements have been scrapped for passengers coming from Egypt. This applies if you're fully vaccinated of course).
