Direct Flights website
 

Is there a website that tells you who flies directly between to ports, e.g Cairo-Milan. Several airlines offer that service but BA for example fly via LHR and take 13 hours for a 3.5 hour trip. Any advice gratefully received.

Alitalia 2x/day, used Expedia and shortest flights option brought it to the top.

Thanks for your quick response. Tried the Alitalia site but my Italian isnt up to scratch

Well, you could try

http://world.altavista.com/

It will even translate web pages for you. Don't know how good it is, but it might do a good enough job for you to get by.

Not to barge in (now that I've de-lurked myself here, I just cant' stop!), but I think what ddavis was trying to indicate is that you can probably accomplish this by going to expedia.com and searching for the flights you're interested in. After your search is performed, click the "shortest flights" option radio button at the top to float the nonstops to the top.

For the route you mentioned (Cairo-Milan) Alitalia does offer direct flights (which you can book via Expedia, saving yourself the Italian lessons!) http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/wink.gif

EDIT: Clarified Expedia's interface (select shortest flights after you search the route) and corrected my speeling errores

I lurk, therefore,
am I?

The MilesBuzz! forum is for posting of information related to the latest frequent flyer program buzz.

This doesn't appear to have anything to do with miles or points, so I'm moving over to TravelBuzz!.
