Cairo International Airport (CAI), Egypt's busiest aviation hub and a key gateway between Africa, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, remains fully open and handling regular commercial passenger traffic on March 21, 2026, despite widespread disruptions across the broader Middle East due to the ongoing U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran.
Live flight tracking data from the official Cairo Airport website (cairo-airport.com), FlightStats, Flightradar24 and Trip.com confirm active arrivals and departures throughout the day. As of mid-morning local time (UTC+2), the arrivals board lists numerous flights marked as "Landed," including services from Athens (A3934), Sharm El Sheikh (SM07), Abu Dhabi (MS1915) and others into Terminals 1, 2 and 3. Departures show scheduled operations to destinations such as Luxor, Sharm el Sheikh, Jeddah, Riyadh and international points, with low reported disruption rates — around 2% impact noted on some trackers like Wego.
