Lounge in Cairo?
 
I'm flying in on a business class AF ticket and flying on to Addis Ababa on an coach ticket on Egypt Air (no business seat available). Any idea of where I can spend time in the Cairo airport? Thanks.

There are two lounges in CAI, in international, and two terminals one intl, one domestic. I presume both flights are int'l. LH (only ticket i have used in CAI) uses the Biz lounge on the rite. decent lounge, very quiet at 3am.

Had to ask for admission ticket, and go through a customs/emmigration check. Post this question on the AF list.

I believe KLM\AF has now moved to the (mainly) domestic terminal, last time I was there about Nov there was no lounge they gave a voucher for the cafe.

I was there a few weeks ago - there is a business class lounge (but I was on EK, so not sure if the terminal is different). If it is the same, the lounge is ok - they have separate smoking & non-smoking lounges (thank God!), but it remains far from comfortable or nice - the airconditioning sucks, the food is limited to a few cold pastries that have seen better days and limited non-alcoholic drinks. Also, there are no newspapers or reading material in the lounge (unless u call the CAI airport brochures reading material) and there is no internet in the terminal. However, what they do have is nice leather couches.

hope this helps,
FoT
