Unfortunately, you did not specify where you are flying. If in Hurghada or Marsa Alam (that is, not in Sinai), then you must pay a tourist tax, which is also a visa. Now 25 dollars, from July 1, they plan to 60. If you are flying to Sharm from Sheikh and do not plan to leave the Sinai Peninsula, you can use the Sinai stamp and pay nothing. By the way, it is not necessary to sit at the same time in the hotel. Of the excursions in this case, only Cairo and Luxor are not available, visas are needed ... Farther...

Good afternoon. The seals are not put by the border guard, but by the CUSTOMS OFFICER of the last Schengen country through which you leave the Schengen.

You can get a refund on a Tax Free check either at the point of payment at the border when leaving the EU, or in Russia, but whether it is possible in Uk ... Farther...
Booked through Booking. More than 2 months before the trip. But the owner is already demanding payment for cleaning (it is indicated on the booking, but not included in the price).

And is it legal to refuse cleaning in hotels at all?

There is a hotel reservation on booking.com, for which the cancellation penalty is 100%, although there is still a week before check-in at the hotel. For personal reasons, I need to cancel this booking. They will not withdraw money because the card has been cancelled. Can the booking or the hotel punish me somehow?
