you have 22.09, and I have 15. Pegasus will return the money only in the event of an official ban from the Russian Foreign Ministry. They say that such a mess is only in Cairo - everything is fine at the resorts. I would really like to believe in it)))

Come on, come on! About the state of emergency in Egypt and in more detail, but rather a reference - we ourselves are flying out on the 20th.
аватар jabetta
Sorry, maybe I didn’t write very clearly (it warms up all this, you know), I just didn’t hear about the official introduction of a state of emergency in Egypt, although I carefully follow the situation there. And where did you get it from?
аватар margusha7474
NTV, REN TV and other TV channels, radio Vesti FM - they all grind the same thing. The Internet is littered with articles about yesterday's event. First, they were eccentric about visas, now about the state of emergency. They did not talk about the ban, but "it is strongly recommended to refrain from traveling to the capital of Egypt!"
It's okay, but Sharm is closer to Israel - somehow scary ....

yes, infa is scattered all over the network! for example - http://ru.apa.az/news_State of emergency_introduced_in_201947.html
аватар jabetta
I am aware of all this, but I have not yet heard the official announcement of a "state of emergency in Egypt". According to the prohibitions, so far, only the Federal Tourism Agency RECOMMENDS to refrain from traveling to Cairo. More, according to this official part - nothing.
аватар vitas133
it's not about the ban, but about the true situation :( How can these messes in the center affect the resort areas?
аватар jabetta
Apparently, this is the news of the last hours (already read the links, etc.). It is embarrassing that everywhere in all the articles the "state of emergency" appears only in the titles of the articles, and then:
"Egyptian Interior Minister Mansour el-Issaoui has declared a 'state of heightened combat alert' and canceled vacations, courses and any other types of absences for police and members of the country's security forces."
But we are already experienced and we know how they can "glue" headlines to attract attention, which, in fact, have nothing to do with reality. So far, I personally do not consider this official information.
аватар margusha7474
and I have the same opinion! they inspire fear and shake people's nerves.
аватар jabetta
You need to go to the forum, let our "local" girls read the official information (we don't understand Arabic).
аватар vitas133
yes, it would be nice to get information from the "place of events": i.e. from the tour operators themselves, on the other hand...
аватар jabetta
It seems that the state of emergency has been introduced (news dated 21.27 Moscow time):

Let's not panic! We are waiting for news from the scene (from our girls from Sharm).

So, what can I say!!!! I convey from a dream of events: in Sharm everything is absolutely as usual .... Tourists are resting, police posts are everywhere, as before, excursions to Israel are not canceled, AND THIS SAYS A LOT between the relations between the two countries !!! I haven’t seen Russian news, although I’ve been watching Russian channels Pervy and RTR all day, in Egyptian news they only talk about a rally near the Israeli embassy in Cairo and that a group of young people climbed onto the embassy building and took down the Israeli flag, burned it, set it on fire a couple of cars, the police dispersed the demonstration with water cannons and tear gas, and all this mess started because the Israeli border guards fired on the Egyptians two weeks ago and still no one officially apologized!
They say that the military is distracting the people from the events with Mubarok with the Israeli issue, and Russia, taking this opportunity, in my opinion, wants to transfer its fellow tourist citizens, Greece, probably, agreed on a round sum, so visas have been facilitated and anti-advertising of Turkey and Egypt are being conducted !! !!
аватар jabetta
Already something! Thank you!
Regarding the state of emergency: officially, after all, introduced?
аватар Karina-Mango
Excuse the pun, third line from the top in the previous statement: ABOUT RELATIONS BETWEEN TWO COUNTRIES!!!
аватар vitas133
judging by the answers on the forum, aisha_sharm can inform us, but we really need to wait at least a couple of days ... good luck
аватар vitas133
Karina-Mango, sorry, I missed your message "with a dream of events" :) It's good if everything is calm and remains
аватар Karina-Mango
The state of emergency in Egypt has been officially for 30 years, and nothing has changed since then!!!
Regarding the typo, sorry, I was in a hurry to write to you !!!
Of course, FROM THE PLACE OF EVENTS:
аватар jabetta
"The state of emergency in Egypt has been officially for 30 years, and nothing has changed since then!!!"
So, what did they introduce today?
аватар Karina-Mango
Absolutely nothing was introduced .... they were just reminded of it yesterday ...
аватар Karina-Mango
Emergencies in Egypt constantly since the signing of a peace treaty with Israel!!!!
It's just that yesterday all the officers were recalled from vacations that last 10 days after the end of Ramadan...

As for the love of Russia and Greece, this is already a fact.
"The Federation Council will support the idea of ​​reorienting the Russian tourist flow from Turkey to Greece. This opinion was expressed by Vladimir Zhidkikh, Chairman of the Upper House Commission on Youth Affairs and Tourism, speaking at a press conference "A new economic model of relations between Greece and Russia in the field of investment policy, commerce and tourism” in RIA Novosti.
аватар HotLine
And Egypt there too. Remember how hard it was for Russia to open flights to Egypt in the spring. Charters flew from Ukraine for a month and a half, while Russia "protected" its citizens.
аватар aisha_sharm
Karina-Mango is right. Everything is calm at our resort. And if there was a threat to life, tourist buses would not be allowed out of Sharm on an excursion to Cairo. This happens when there are riots in Cairo - the police do not give permission to take tourists out of the city. Egypt does not pursue the goal of losing tourists. And they will not let tourists go into a "mess". They understand how this will end for Egypt. She herself returned from Israel at the border on both sides at night. And Cairo, what can I say about him. Probably at least 50 years, when the new generation of Egyptians will change their thinking, provided that everyone completes secondary education and lives at least as they live now in our countries. And now the brains of many there are at the level of the ancient pyramids (someone said something and everyone believed.) The army is on alert, but no emergency has been declared in Egypt.

Conclusion: War is war, but lunch is on schedule. :))
And if it's about the situation between Egypt and Israel, then where the loot is pumped, everything will be calm. The Semites are a cunning people...

The situation in the city is still normal, but tourists complain about the lack of attention to them from the staff.
Egyptian Air Force fighters and military helicopters appeared in the air over Cairo on Sunday, and additional army forces and military equipment were brought into the city center.
The authorities demand that the demonstrators disperse and stop

Why do we need this reprint of January 30, 2011? Maybe I didn't understand something? Maybe not a hint for average minds?

unfortunately, even more recent articles are not of a comforting nature - http://svpressa.ru/politic/article/47697/
But these are articles, but what about in real life?
uv. aisha_sharm, if you don't mind, describe at least a couple of lines the real situation in the charm: many people who are unable to make decisions due to lack of information will be grateful to you!
