When this route gets cheap.
Fares bottom out in November around $210 and peak in March near $398, 90% dearer, across the 6 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 6.5 hours outbound, on a 1-night trip — ticketed under Wizz Air Malta, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $210 for 3,350 km each way, that works out to about $31 per 1,000 km flown. That is below the $43 per 1,000 km typical of medium-haul fares here. Across the 16 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Cairo, this fare ranks 7th — 1.8× the $120 we hold from Milan. For context, the middle fare among the 7 routes of similar length we watch out of Madrid is $186. The best time to be in Cairo: Oct–Apr.

Good to know
MAD → CAI, answered.
Is $210 a good price for Madrid to Cairo?
Yes — the seasonal median for this route is around $350 round-trip. At $210 you're 40% below that, which we rate rare for this route.
What is the cheapest month to fly from Madrid to Cairo?
Across 6 months of cached-fare history, Nov comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Cairo are Oct–Apr — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book MAD → Cairo?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 6 months of cached fares, Nov comes out lowest on this route. Our guide Why flight prices change covers what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from Madrid to Cairo?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Wizz Air Malta. We hold no nonstop fare on this route right now, which does not mean none flies — search your exact dates to see what does.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 17 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
