You may not even appear, and these a couple of times = your own business.
The only thing I can advise is to clarify the departure time on the eve of departure - it can move both in one direction and in the other.

Thanks a lot

In such cases, it is recommended to warn the transfer manager that you are not going to the hotel. Because the whole bus will be waiting for you until it stops.
But it's true, thinking out loud :)

I often did this, my friend bought a hut in Sharm. Upon arrival, I received a room, immediately agreed at the reception and left the hotel before being on the plane. Left a phone number in case the flight was cancelled. There have never been any problems.

Yes, I forgot, it is mandatory to register at the hotel, you were traveling to the country on a tourist visa and when filling out the registration form you indicate the hotel where the tour was sold. Few things can happen that you don't have problems later. We must respect the laws of the state.
аватар Anetka-gan
well, not so necessarily)) or rather, according to the law, it seems to be as it should, but no one is following this (chtol if you do something). if you already registered in the room, it is better not to warn the reception that you will be absent. especially if your things are there.
well, most of them fly on a tourist visa, not charters. you can specify the same address of a friend.

The man wrote that he was going on a tour ticket! That's why it's a must. I have never had any problems, but a friend got into a car accident as a passenger, the police who arrived, although politely, checked both the documents and the place of registration. Please do not confuse a tourist visa with a guest visa. We agreed at the reception on favorable terms, I only need registration, and they need a number, and if you are going to friends, why do you need to leave things at the hotel. Flight rescheduling is a constant problem, it happens very often. and thanks to my agreements, I have never had any problems with departure.

I fully agree with miki08, warn the guide, register at the hotel, leave the phone for the guide and at the reception - it will not be superfluous.

It is necessary to register at the hotel and get a room - just in case, suddenly the rest in another place will not be so pleasant, you can always return to the hotel, and be sure to warn the guide.
And about the transfer, you can not take it, drive on your own.

for Kasja23, the bus-transfer was not waiting for me, although I was registered and lived at the Lillyland hotel - this is how Intourist work (the day before I approached the guides, specified the flight number, i.e. noted). I had to take a wheelbarrow to the airport. I was only 10 minutes late. By the way, has anyone ever been in this situation? share your experience or opinions.

The transfer from the airport to the hotel was implied. There you would have been waiting for the rest of the bus passengers until you were blue in the face.
аватар Tati1144
Kasja23 I understand, but from the hotel to the airport, they must also collect the entire group according to the list
аватар Kasja23
As my girlfriend likes to repeat, "It's supposed to be? Put it on!" Without a scandal, they do not always put it.
On the way back, the shoals pop up much more often. It is not recommended to lose vigilance.
аватар elenako
Yes, they always wait from the airport, but almost never at the airport.

what else is a visitor visa to Egypt =))) what are you ??)))
in Sharm and Hurghada, it is MANDATORY to fill out immigration cards, you write the address of residence in them. write the guests or the hotel, it's a personal matter. only now for our tourists they made the issuance of cards only in exchange for a voucher.
аватар miki08
And such if you are going to rest for a month or more. Those who bought property in Egypt have a long-term visa, and those who came to visit them for a long time must receive a guest visa.

The procedure for issuing a visa and terms of production in Ukraine
* A tourist visa for up to one month is issued at the airport upon arrival.
* Visas for a longer period are issued at the Egyptian Embassy in Kyiv.
* Processing time - from 3 working days
The cost of a visa in Ukraine
* For tourists flying directly to Cairo, a visa (without any problems in 2-3 days) is opened at the Egyptian Embassy in Kyiv. Cost – 30 USD
* Tourists flying to Hurghada, Sharm El Sheikh by direct charter, pay for a visa at the airport - 15 USD

did many of your friends get a visitor visa??? the visa is extended in the same place in Egypt without any problems in a couple of hours in El Tour.
аватар miki08
We flew there to rest in a simple way, that is, we bought the worst hotel, registered and went to a friend's villa. But a year ago, he asked to find a married couple of pensioners in Ukraine so that they could live with him there from June to September. I found people, and in order not to have problems, they had to get this visa, they gave it without problems and everyone was satisfied.

You know why the Slavs are so disliked in the first place. When the whole world enters through the door, we alone try to enter through the window. There is a legal field in Egypt, the procedure is clearly described and performed and sleep peacefully, I personally do not know how El Tour works. How many Ukrainians have already been caught on a fake registration in Moscow, in a place of normal procedure, they bought from ads in various companies, well, like a real one, but up to the first policeman, and then they blamed everyone except their stupidity.

Extending a visa in El Tour (the capital of South Sinai) is super easy and costs about 8 pounds (1.5 dollars). There is a lot of information about this on the Internet with a detailed description, office hours, up to what, when and to whom to speak. The procedure is absolutely within the framework of the law, there is no smell of a "window" here. The only trouble is that the residents of Russia and Ukraine, as a rule, extend it for a month, and the subsequent extension is denied. This certainly does not apply to property owners in Sinai.

I haven't dealt with this company, so I can't say anything about it. I gave you an example with Moscow, just so many people were thrown, moreover, because of their own stupidity. It doesn’t matter how I understood the problem, let’s say it doesn’t solve the problem for three months, but it’s still easier to do it officially in Kyiv. Personally, a week has always been enough for me, and then I get tired of the heat and the sea, probably Odessa's mother is to blame for this. So let everyone decide how to behave in this or that situation, but I do not advise breaking the law, and even in a Muslim country, it is expensive.
аватар Anetka-gan
El Tour is not a company, but a city)) it is clear that you do not know the essence. this is a LEGAL extension of TOURIST visas for those wishing to stay longer in the resort.
аватар i.sharm
Yes, and sometimes solves the problem of three months. When you try to extend the second time, you are assigned an interview at the local security department, after which they make a decision, of course, most often they refuse, but sometimes the decision is made for a very long time. One of my friends, with a note in her passport that her request is being considered, lived here for another 3 months. Everyone was waiting for a call :)
And yet, documents for visa extension can be submitted within 2 weeks after its expiration, and
after the refusal, 2 weeks are given to leave Egypt.
Well, in extreme cases, if you overstayed your visa, you will have to pay a fine on departure from Egypt, about $ 30, which does not limit subsequent entries into the country.
