Malaysian outbound agents putting Egypt back on their radar

Outbound agents are looking to put Egypt back on the travel radar for Malaysians by leveraging cheaper ground prices and promoting the destination aggressively at the upcoming MATTA Fair in Kuala Lumpur next month, TTG Asia reported. “In general, ground arrangements are around 20-30% less throughout the country as compared to 2013 rates. For USD 100, we can now get a five-star hotel in Cairo and Aswan; in the past, USD 100 could only fetch a four-star property,” said one convention goer.
