we somehow got to the action in the dutik "you take 2l - the 3rd is free" - we missed it)))
and so - we throw it in luggage + take it to duty, they have never been taken away

They will not be taken away during the flight.
But, in general, according to the rules in Egypt, for persons over 20 years old, the importation of up to 1 liter of strong alcohol is allowed. But, as a rule, Egyptian customs officers do not find fault with this. Is that if you get on some principled.
For example, we pour alcohol into plastic bottles and carry it in luggage under the guise of water (lemonade). It is unlikely that anyone will check their contents.

The eternal question. And the eternal answer: according to the rules per person, a liter of strong and two liters of weak alcohol. Breaking the rules is on your conscience. On the forum, people write that they carry strong alcohol in suitcases. I willingly believe. But, if you get caught with such a suitcase, the responsibility will be on you, and not on the people from the forum.
Usually more strict customs just on our side. The Egyptians, as a rule, are allowed to carry water even in one and a half liter bottles. In Borispol, it is absolutely impossible: they are confiscated with a scandal.

Take some in your luggage, some in duty-free bags - and everything will work out.
If you observe how much alcohol people carry from duty free to Egypt, it seems that no one even thinks about the norms of transportation

You can buy, you can't deliver. Until you fly to Hurghada with friends, drink at least a liter))

Regarding the transport of alcohol in "one and a half" from water ... It has been discussed more than once.
On x-rays, the density of a liquid glows in different colors. This is done to prevent liquid explosives from getting on board. So the customs officer who looks at the contents of your suitcase on the screen sees perfectly well that there is no water in the water bottle at all. But in tourist destinations they simply turn a blind eye to this.
You try this way to bring your vodka and a half to the USA or England, for example.
Look how it will end..)))

They carried a liter of strong alcohol in a suitcase, in Boryspil before flying to Hurghada I took 2 liters of whiskey, and my wife - 2 liters of cognac. It rolled without problems, but to be honest, we were worried, but everything worked out.

And what is the problem, is it not an option to buy in a dutik, why such difficulties with transfusion and stuffing into suitcases?
It may have a special charm to drag booze poured into Coca-Cola bottles, but this is your responsibility, which is provided for by law.
And you buy alcohol from a dutik and you carry it normally, for two adults you can buy decent alcohol.

The eternal question, as well as about caralques-masks-snorkels and the quality of the reef. ;)
Although I heard about pouring into plastic bottles for the first time, I always carried it in a container in which they bottled it at the factory and sold it in a supermarket, I just wrapped it with things so that they would not be beaten and, as a result, do not walk around in clothes smelling of alcohol for the whole vacation :)
Although one friend from our company somehow brought alcohol in plastic, which he bodyed with water on vacation, as an economy option.
How many extra norms I carried - never slow down, some in luggage, some bought in djutik.
I described my record somewhere here, I don’t remember the number, I’ll write “dofiga” for one, the reason is that a large company flew away earlier, and I later, like 4-5 days, and they devastated their reserves, in the city dutek two days later they didn’t sell it, and you can politely ask me to bring it, so you brought half a suitcase of vodka from the supermarket and stocked up in the dyutic of Boryspil, at customs in Egypt, after doping before the flight - he was calm like a boa constrictor, but how they met me at the hotel;)

"Although I first heard about pouring into plastic bottles ....."
It is because of the fact that glass bottles do not break and I pour them into plastic ones. This is my habit from hiking with a backpack. Still, they saw how they threw bags and suitcases, unloading them from the plane (that some even fell apart). And I always take a minimum of things, I go with a cloth travel bag. Safety precautions, so to speak. It is both convenient and easier (what to carry three glass bottles, and what one plastic one and a half).
