The venture has taken over six lounges across the three terminals and seasonal terminal and will develop a new lounge near the F gates in Terminal 3.
Ayman Arab, Chairman of the Egyptian Holding Company for Airports and Air Navigation, said the partnership supports the Civil Aviation Ministry and holding company’s vision to improve passenger services and airport standards amid strong growth in Egyptian airport arrivals and departures.
Cairo Airport Company Chairman Magdy Ishak said the company is committed to improving the airport experience and becoming a leading global destination. He described the partnership as the beginning of a new era in airport hospitality. Cairo Airport is a vital Egyptian and regional hub supporting the economy and connectivity and is Egypt’s and Africa’s busiest airport, having welcomed 28.775 million passengers in 2024.
The agreement marks Plaza Premium Group’s official entry into Egypt and another step in its Middle East and North Africa expansion, following recent growth in Saudi Arabia, Kenya and the UAE.
