EgyptAir Cargo resumes twice-weekly cargo flights to Moscow

EgyptAir Cargo apparently sent its first cargo flight to Moscow in two years on 29 November, the company said in a statement.

EgyptAir Cargo plans on sending twice-weekly flights to the Russian capital until the end of February 2018, according to the statement.

The company has been in talks with Russia to resume cargo flights since the 2015 Metrojet plane crash, Chairman Bassem Gohar tells Al Mal.

EgyptAir Cargo’s negotiations were separate from the Civil Aviation Ministry’s efforts to bring back tourist flights. The resumption of cargo flights came two weeks before Egypt and Russia signed a civil aviation security cooperation protocol that would allow direct flights between Moscow and Cairo to resume as of February.
