    True. But the trouble is spreading and I'm not sure I would want to be in Egypt in the next few weeks.

    Then again, it might all be over in a few days.

    Yup could go either way. They must have known I'm going to Sharm in 3 weeks. :D
    Set your goals high, and don't stop till you get there.

  • I would highly recommend Grand Rotana. Its a 5* hotel got 5 quality restaurants, its own beach, there is a scuba diving place on site, rooms are lovely, modern and spacious. Staff are very friendly! Definately have a look at it, this has been my favourite beach/sun holiday of my life, mostly due to the hotel!

    Hi, I'm heading to Hurghada in 3 weeks so hope things have calmed down a touch by then

    We've stayed in Naama Bay a few times and can reccommend the Marriot, Novotel (beach side) and the Iberostar Lido.

    We stayed at Reef Oasis Blue Bay in November 09, we had a lovely holiday, it has it's own beach and a few good restaurants, short taxi ride to Na'ama Bay too.
  • They did say on the news today that its got so bad with the civil unrest in Egypt that a flight was turned back in mid-air. I would hang fire before booking anything if I were you.....

    They also interviewed a holiday maker in Sharm who said they were not being allowed out of the hotels.

    If you really want to keep on top of the news in Egypt (and the Middle East and North Africa) then watch Aljazeera on Freeview channel 89, after 1800 daily.

    They just pulled the plug on aljazeera
