More specifically - which resort, hotel category and what do you mean by "economy option"?
аватар Tusya_73
What does economy option mean? Airfare is now somewhere around 400 - 500 USD. Hotel per day per person 3* from 30 c.u. Insurance 0.5 c.u. per day. Season, however. And soon the May holidays and the same hotel will be from 35 USD. per day. Nobody is on fire right now. Flights are loading great.

I advise you to follow the prices of the Capital tour, but there cheap options mean departure the very next day. As for the resorts - see 3 * in Taba, Dahab, Nuweiba - there prices are slightly lower than in Sharm, Hurghada, Marsa Alam

And where did you see such an air flight ($ 500) ...
Only I found a few vouchers in Kyiv, for the sake of interest, for 350 USD. Hurghada, 3 stars. Of course, flights are loaded perfectly - everyone loses their jobs, so people have nowhere else to put their money, how to go to resorts. And travel agencies are now flourishing with such a euro exchange rate. It's time to go abroad.

Thanks for answers. And last-minute trips on April 19 are real and at what price? Departure on the "next day" will suit.

burning, I think not real. Since December, only once were on March 11 and that's it. Now there are few flights and they are well filled. So buy, probably in advance, otherwise there will be no flights later.

What are burning??? everything burned down in December!
Especially since it's high season...
I’ll throw you an interesting article - enlighten yourself about the burning ones and draw conclusions

What is a "Hot Tour", the process of its acquisition + the truth about promotions:
In view of the prevailing and well-established opinion about the "burning tour" as a tour that was abandoned, it is 100% delusion. In the modern tourism business, with a contractual relationship, a tour operator and a travel agent, in case of refusal from an already booked and confirmed tour, certain penalties come into force, therefore, if a tourist refuses a tour, the travel agent is obliged to compensate the tour operator for a penalty in the amount of 30 to 100% of the total cost of the tour (depending on from the date and season of the upcoming departure).
"Hot tour" is a special offer that is formed in a situation in which there is an excessive planned loading of a charter flight (underload), while the tour operator recalculates the previously announced price offer in the direction of reducing the cost, thereby financially interest potential tourists.
The tour operator reduces the price, as a rule, for its basic hotels, in which at the moment there is a quota of guaranteed places and, accordingly, the demand for them is not very high (this can, as a rule, be during the middle season "slow" hotels of category 3-4 * or affordable 5* hotels).

"Hot tour" often occurs mainly during the low season, when the load on charter flights is low.
Tour operators give all their price offers online, accessible to any Internet user (search for a tour on the tour operator's website), so the prices for tours are the same for all travel agents (there are no separate networks, including "burning" and others with exclusive, special prices ). Therefore, if the cost of the tour, for example, is 1218 USD, then its cost in the online system for all agencies is 1218 USD. Based on this, it does NOT make sense to call and court everyone in a row in search of a more unreasonably low price for the same tour.
In practice, a situation arises in which a tourist, in "search" for a lower price, "does not succeed" anywhere, due to the fact that: the sale for a charter is closed, or the hotel "left the sale" for a given period of time, or the hotel raised the price for it (the last already becoming the rule for the modern tourism market)
A "hot" tour is usually a 7 night tour due to the fact that it is tied to a charter i.e. to the weekly download schedule. With rare exceptions, in the low season there are "burning" tours for 10 or 14 nights.

In practice, the purchase of a "burning tour" does not leave the tourist to think twice and "collect feedback" - but requires promptness, decisiveness and speed of decision-making in the current situation.
The probability of closing the quota of places in the hotel and / or terminating the promotion under the "hot tour" scheme is very high, therefore, in practice, after receiving a refusal, you have to book another hotel (at best, on the same date) or refuse to travel for this period.
"Hot tour" is of course the prerogative of people "easy-going" and for those who are not bound by a certain time frame in terms of the implementation of the trip.
Recently, the leading tour operators have been practicing the scheme of selling tours in advance, i.e. the earlier the tour is booked and redeemed, the lower its cost than on the eve of departure.

About promotions – "Fortuna"
good for those who want
1. go for the first time (nothing to compare with - you should like it)
2. fly many times during the year "with your own company"
3. meet a narrowly defined (very modest budget)
on a note -
Since promotions like TEZ EXPRESS, Ruletka, Fortuna, Bingo, Happy Hour…..
this is the process of buying a "pig in a poke" "under the declared star rating indicated in the voucher (voucher), but as a rule, if it is 5 *, then the cheapest at the local Resort (resort), in practice, tourists rarely get into a decent hotel with real " strong "stars" (as a rule - a hotel on the 2nd line, on the "outskirts" with a bad beach and infrastructure, and other, other "charms" of a ball trip, where the lion's share of the cost "hidden" in air travel, transfer and insurance. You need to give yourself report that if a tourist deliberately and consciously chooses a tour to a 3 * -4 * hotel at a cost slightly more than a charter ticket, then "there is practically no hotel on the tour."
So think for yourself - decide for yourself!
