Best time to be in Cairo: Oct–Apr. Fare history for this route is still thin, so we make no seasonal call yet.
The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 4.5 hours outbound, on a 6-night trip — ticketed under Pegasus, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $195 for 2,383 km each way, that works out to about $41 per 1,000 km flown. That is about the $41 typical of short-haul fares here. Across the 10 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Cairo, this fare ranks 5th — 1.9× the $104 we hold from Milan. For context, the middle fare among the 10 routes of similar length we watch out of Vienna is $142. We have 3 months of cached prices for this route so far — not enough to call a fare cheap or expensive, so we publish the price without a percentage.

VIE → CAI, answered.
How far in advance should I book VIE → 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We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet.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. See /guides/what-moves-a-flight-price/ for the levers we can measure.
Are there nonstop flights from Vienna to Cairo?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Pegasus. Nonstop options exist on many dates at higher prices — check the live search for your exact dates.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on September 1). 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.
