About EgyptAir
EgyptAir is the state-owned flag carrier of Egypt and a Star Alliance member. Cairo International Airport (CAI) is the centre of its operation. From there the airline serves Egyptian cities such as Luxor, Aswan, Sharm El Sheikh and Hurghada, along with international routes to the Middle East, Africa, Europe, Asia and North America. Its position between Africa and the Middle East makes Cairo a practical transfer point for travel between the two regions. EgyptAir is a full-service airline that sells economy and business class.
Whether you are putting together an Egypt tour with domestic legs or a simple return to Cairo, you can look for EgyptAir on IATA.co. Search live fares in the booking portal, or use the flights API to bring the results into your own system, and pay from your prepaid balance. EgyptAir fares appear in your search results whenever our flight suppliers offer them for your route and dates. The rules attached to each fare, including baggage and changes, are displayed before you confirm.

Booking EgyptAir fares as a travel agent
Travel agents book EgyptAir fares on IATA.co without their own IATA accreditation. Activate an agency account, top up a prepaid balance, then search live MS fares in the booking portal: the price, baggage and fare rules are shown with each offer before you confirm, and the amount is deducted from your balance. EgyptAir results appear whenever our flight suppliers return them for your route and dates, so what you can book follows live supplier content rather than a direct airline deal.

Filter a search by the carrier code MS and read the fares back as JSON, then book from the same prepaid balance. See the flights API and the API docs for the full reference.
