Where is Sphinx Airport in Egypt?

Where is Sphinx Airport in Egypt? A clear, up-to-date answer for travellers planning their trip. Book a licensed driver with Sphinx Airport now.

Sphinx International Airport sits in Giza Governorate, on Egypt's Cairo-Alexandria desert road, near the town of Kerdasa — on the western edge of Greater Cairo, roughly 35 km from 6th of October City.

It was purpose-built to serve travellers visiting the Giza Plateau, home to the Pyramids of Giza, the Great Sphinx monument, and the Grand Egyptian Museum, offering a shorter route into the area than flying into Cairo International Airport on the opposite side of the city.

The airport shares its site with the older Cairo West Air Base and is a single-terminal facility, handling both domestic connections within Egypt and a growing number of international and charter routes.

If you're trying to work out how it fits into a wider Egypt itinerary, most travellers use Sphinx Airport as a starting or ending point for Giza and Cairo, connecting onward to the Red Sea coast or Upper Egypt by domestic flight — and Sphinx Airport (the transfer company) covers the ground transport for every leg of that.
