Are these any better than the standard fares ex-CAI?

Thanks man, but I am so done with transiting through CAI.

For the CAI-NRT ticket the price jumps to around 1,500 euros when you get to the TK web site.

I transit through CAI at least twice a month (based in Alexandria, Egypt) and I honestly have no problems. Sure, there are ....ing annoying people asking for tips but just ignore them and they leave you alone after a few minutes.

Yeah NRT is tricky to price out for some reason I know it is possible because I did manage to do it on a pair of dates in April I'm not sure why it errors out like this. My problem with Transit in Cairo is the timings of the positioning flights.

agree transit in Cairo is hectic and a nightmare with these fares from Cairo they are not at all competitive to Qatar sales

Hopefully its not Airline Staff or Immigration asking for tips. We arrive at 7:45pm on Egypt Air and connect onto TK to BKK., which departs at 9;30pm or so. Our luggage will be tagged all the way to BKK. So the only thing is to ensure that our boarding passes have been verified by the transfer desk staff.

Yeah, I've done it four times in the past six months and am a bit burned out. My first experience is in the thread here, with subsequent trips marginally better. On top of that I have to take a 2 hour train to Madrid, flight to ATH, then to CAI, then the madhouse aspect of CAI has me booking tickets out of OSL or CPH. Price and time difference is negligible, imho.

On top of that I have to take a 2 hour train to Madrid, flight to ATH, then to CAI, then the madhouse aspect of CAI has me booking tickets up to OSL or CPH. Price and time difference is negligible, imho.

Now I recall your other post. But I am going to go for BCN-IST-CAI and while in IST request for Boarding passes for the CAI-BKK segment. BCN to IST is TK and IST-CAI is MS. Hoping that TK in BCN will tag our luggage all the way to BKK. I don't think I will do this again, too complicated to book separate tickets to fly out of CAI.

Just flagging that DEL also seems like a great deal for $1K CAD:

SSH-MNL $1,223, CAI-MNL $1,230 on scattered dates.
SSH-DPS $1,242, CAI-DPS $1,250 widely available after launch.
Book into K and not J.
