Egyptair announces it is positive about its business growth and Africa's aviation sector

Egyptair has announced it is positive about its future business activities due to the revival of aviation on a global level and the prime position that Africa is in to lead this growth.

Egyptair, international airline and Egypt's national carrier, has also confirmed its status as AVEX International Airshow's platinum sponsor and official carrier. AVEX, the Africa and Middle East aviation platform, is taking place at Sharm El-Sheikh International Airport from November 7th -10th 2010.

Egyptair currently flies to 72 destinations across Asia, Africa, Europe and North America. The carrier is expanding rapidly and recently took possession of two out of six new Boeing 777-300ER planes as part of its 2013 fleet-expansion plan.

The new 777s offer business-class travellers flat bed seats, a state-of-the-art entertainment system available on 15-inch screens and dedicated power outlets to recharge their personal devices. The carrier revealed that it has contracted eight new B737-800 aircraft to supplement its existing fleet of 12 aircraft, bringing the total fleet size of B737-800 aircraft to 20. It also has plans to purchase Airbus A330-300s in the near future.
