Low-cost airline Wizz Air is offering flights to Egypt from Milan, Rome & Budapest for under €100. The budget airline offers prices as low as €80 with a Wizz Air Discount Club membership and €100 without. Unfortunately, these fares only include a small personal item. Adding a checked bag of 20kg roughly doubles the price, a trolley sized cabin bag adds €17 per flight. Departures are scattered from December 2024 to October 2025.
The prices may have slightly increased since we published this deal a couple of months ago. But overall it’s still available.
You can reach the following routes for less than €120:
- Milan – Hurghada at €92
- Vienna – Hurghada at €100
- Milan – Cairo at €100
- Rome – Cairo at €100
- Budapest – Hurghada at HUF 42,780 (~€109)
- Budapest – Cairo at HUF 42,780 (~€109)
Our availability calendar highlights all possible flight dates at the lowest price for trips of up to 28 days for up to €130. It will forward you to Wizz Air with your selected flight dates.
Currently, Wizz Air schedules an Airbus A320 for these flights, which in my subjective opinion is the best out of their fleet. Especially, if you get lucky with one of the old Ukrainian planes, which still have recline in addition to plushy seats. But keep in mind that the airline frequently changes equipment, and 4 hours on their A321s may not be as fun.
Search & Book
As a low-cost airline, Wizz Air sells one-way flights and return trips that are priced like two one-ways. Therefore, there is no minimum or maximum stay. Booking two one-ways could save a few cents due to currency differences but can have disadvantages if only one of the legs gets changed or cancelled. Wizz Air quite frequently adjusts schedules.
You can check dates using Google Flights. We highly recommend only booking through Wizz Air’s website. While some online travel agencies offer it a few euros cheaper, the add-ons will be much higher, you’ll have limited access to your booking, you may face check-in difficulties and schedule changes could be more painful. The flights don’t show up on Google Flights as of writing, but the airline has its own price calendar.
Wizz Air Discount Club
Wizz Air has a pretty interesting membership programme. Don’t expect miles or statuses, but one could argue that it’s even better. For just €40 (2 persons) or €70 a year, you can get ~€10 discount per person per flight in addition to a discount on bags. An important addition is that the discount only applies to flights which cost more than €20. (Although they usually put a smaller discount on cheaper flights which will reduce the fare to €10.
Please note that Wizz Air usually sells tickets in the currency of the departure country. For these flights, they convert the savings to the local currency, which can happen at pretty and market rates.
To get a Wizz Air Discount Club (WDC) membership, you need to select the WDC price when you search for flights (see in the above gallery). After that, you will have to accept the terms and add WDC to your basket. The membership will be valid for one year after the date of the booking. This means that you can book fares with a WDC discount for one calendar year. Your trip can be after the expiration date as the booking date matters.
If you are booking a round-trip for two people or if you are flying Wizz Air at least 4 times alone, then it is definitely worth it to buy the Standard membership. If a family goes on a round trip, it will also pay off.
