Holiday in Egypt

[Crazyhorse]

Fellow bit bashers.

In 3 weeks I have a holiday booked in Cairo, The Nile and Sharm El Shiekh, me 'er indoors and a 13 year old lad.

Five grand down the swanny or three if I cancel today. Not being smarmy, but money isn't the issue, after all it's already been spent.

I know it's down to us I'm just wondering if there are angles we haven't thgought of.

Should we go?

Contact the home office and ask them.
If they say it isnt safe then you should get all your money back.

Just go, you have got to die of something, and you could as easy be caught in a motorway pile up as bombed.

[DimPrawn]

Yeah go. If you get blown up it's the will of Allah.

As sala'amu alaikum

Foreign office advise remains as it was: it's dodgy but you can still go - with London's position they're not going to change.

You only get full refund if FO says don't go

Go. Fantastic holiday destination, friendly people (particularly when it comes to parting you from your cash, but they do it so nicely), great things to see and do. You won't regret it, holiday of a lifetime for you and the family. 15 people die in accidents on the roads in the UK EVERY DAY. Keep things in perspective.

I agree with Lucifer, but did you choose a packaged holiday?? if not would be better if you book an accomodation where mainly non westerners go, they bombers will choose areas where loads of european tourst are staying, hence its better to stay or go places where the locals are...

I have read more about this than any sane person would want to read and I know it's my decision, as I said I just wanted to hear some other views.

Most of the people involved in Sharm were Egyptians!
