My complaint about Egyptair is too lengthy for this form. In a nutshell I booked a flight from ******* to ***** with Egyptair air and the ticket was in my name, "*****" which didn't match my passport, "********". I showed up three hours early at the Egyptair check in counter for my flight, they refused to allow me to check in. They then offered to change my ticket from ***** to ******** for $100.00. I said OK and then another member of the Egyptair team in ******* came over to me and said that the plane was full. I explained to him that one of the seats was mine and booked by me. He then said that if I paid him $2,300.00 in CASH that he would let me board. They wouldn't take a credit card even though I have an AMEX Platinum card. He told me to an ATM and make a withdrawal. I said I can't do that because it's far too much money. After about 15 minutes or so he came over to me and said that he would take $1,900.00 CASH if I could come up with that. In the end I ended up missing my flight and having to book with another airline in order to make my connections past *****. I feel that I Egyptair staff in ******* tried to extort me for cash. I have written Egyptair and they have actually lied in their return email. I'm getting nowhere with them. I've never end of anything like this CASH policy before.*****Review from Chosen F

On August 1st, I flew on EgyptAir from ************** to *******. My flight number was MS982 during the process EgyptAir lost one of my luggage. I am still waiting to be compensated for my lost luggage. I was contacted by EgyptAir on September 24th, 2023. EgyptAir assigned me a claim number #****/2023, and stated their insurance company will investigate and settle my claim in 14 days. This was two months ago and I still havent been paid.Review from MOHAMED E

I have a problem with EgyptAir regarding luggage... I traveled on an EgyptAir *****-****** flight, and upon arrival, my bag had broken wheels, and the second attempt was to open the lock on the bag, which was clearly visible, by one of the workers, and so far no one has cared about my complaint.Review from Confidential C

I'm traveling on Egypt air in 2 days and I booked tickets a couple of weeks ago. I was unable to select meals then and I've tried contacting egypt air several times, no response. When I call them it's disconnected after 1 hour of wait. This is absolutely absurd. Looking for a resolution ASAP.Review from Harvey Y

I cancelled a flight within 24 hours of the promised cancellation period and did not receive a refund.. EgyptAir policy indicates a full refund within 24-hr period cancellation. I was informed I would receive the refund after 20 days of booking. this was three months ago and tens of email exchanges. I was even promised by another agent two weeks ago that a full refund is to be expected within two days. Still have not received a refund. I was transferred between multiple departments from ******* Financial to *** online refund. This seems to be the trend looking at the reviews below. DO NOT BUY TICKETS DIRECTLY FROM EGYPTAIR. If you have to fly EgyptAir, purchase the tickets through a third party like *********.Egyptair Response

Hi BBB,I purchased two business class Egyptair flight tickets through their online website (Egyptair.com) on November 5th 2021. Booking reservation number: ******. I cancelled the tickets on November 26th 2021. The airline stated on their website that we can ask for a refund, in case of cancellation. I contacted them multiple times by phone but no answer. I tried to contact them on their ******** page, one of the agents replied and mentioned that I will get my refund in 21 business days. Time passed and I did not receive my money yet and they do not even update me on the situation every time I try to ask again..Thank youCustomer Response
