So glad my bid for upgrade to Business Class was not high enough.
Flying Jan. 4 2023 JFK to CAI on Egpytair # 986 which at that time departed about 5 pm for an overnight. I understand same flt leaves earlier from JFK now. I was flying on a partner miles ticket using United miles on Egyptair to CAI then after a few days in Cairo and Luxor, continued on to Tel Aviv on Egyptair. With the United program the CAI-TLV leg was "free". I returned to U.S. on United from TLV. Point of those details is that I was flying at the lowest economy level with the points ticket, so I had no say-so as to advance seat choice on that particular fare with Egyptair. I received an email 48 hours before departure with an upgrade bid offer to business class. I responded with the minimum bid threshold: $900. I am happy that was not accepted because I ended up with the 22H which is an aisle on the 3-seat right of the plane just three rows behind the biz class section. With that I got a good look at the biz class seats on this airline. Not worth $900.00. So I enjoyed my aisle seat. I know some don't like aisles because the traffic sometimes will bump into you (other passengers, the bev. cart). That's OK with me. I need access to the lavs. I'm old. LOL. So if you prefer aisles, you fly on this airline in economy and you have a choice, definitely go for this seat of one nearby (behind). It has access to lavs front and behind. Bonus: The middle seat was empty and the fellow at the window slept the entire flight until we neared CAI. Attached view towards biz class from 22H. Further comment: I'd give the airline an overall B rating. It was all good in economy/coach, even the overnight pack with slippers, earphones, etc. But not up to say British Air or American and Delta. But I'd fly them again if I needed to go to Cairo. Egyptair is the ONLY way to get to CAI non-stop from North America: From JFK, Dulles or Toronto. At least that was the case when I made plans for early 2023.
