Cairo International Airport at a glance
Cairo International Airport is the main international airport serving Cairo and one of Egypt's most important gateways. It is commonly known by the airport code CAI.
Official-source arrival guidance
Last checked: 2026-08-12. Cairo Airport Company lists Terminal 1, Terminal 2, Terminal 3, and Seasonal terminal information, plus a live airline-company directory by terminal. Terminal assignment can still change by airline, route, and operation, so check your airline and the airport flight information page close to travel.
Do not assume all EgyptAir, Air Cairo, Nile Air, or partner flights use one terminal. Cairo Airport's current airline directory shows Air Cairo and Nile Air in Terminal 1, EgyptAir entries in Terminal 2 and Terminal 3, and many international carriers split across Terminals 2 and 3. Verify the specific flight.
International arrivals may include visa or entry checks, immigration, baggage claim, customs, airport services, and then the public arrivals area. Mersavia cannot alter immigration, customs, security, or airline baggage procedures.
A protected airline connection is different from a self-transfer. Check whether bags are through-checked, whether you must change terminals, and whether you must re-clear security, immigration, or check-in. Do not use a universal minimum connection time.
Cairo Airport's transport page lists taxi, bus, car rental, and limousine information. It also says buses depart from the bus station in the parking area in front of Terminal 1 only. For late arrivals or heavy luggage, prearranged pickup can reduce friction.
