Airport ok. More security points than other places I have travelled from.
No internet available unless you spent time installing local SIM cards etc. so couldn't book taxi/transport as such.
Taxi drivers rip off wanted 1000EGP(£25) for 5 min drive to hotel... settled on 600EGP which we found out was 3x the price. Not nice start of the holiday when you are taken advantage off like that. They think we all rich and doing nothing for hard earned money back home I guess.

internet wifi is only limited to egyptian sim card users. They should have everyone be allowed to connect to wifi regardless of what sim it is, foreign or local. Other than that the airport is alright.
