Trends for Egyptair Express and Egyptair Cargo are shown on the relevant articles. Figures for the year ending 30 June 2011, and the lack of detailed accounts since then, reflect the disruption that occurred because of the Egyptian Revolution in early 2011.

Egyptair Head Office

Egyptair is headquartered in the Egyptair Administrative Complex on the grounds of Cairo International Airport in Cairo.

Egyptair Logo

The airline's logo is Horus, the sky deity in ancient Egyptian mythology, chosen because of its ancient symbolism as a "winged god of the sun", and usually depicted as a falcon or a man with the head of a falcon.

The Horus made its first appearance in the early 1970s. It was originally painted with a red head and blue feathers in front of a golden backdrop. It was painted around the plane including the engine cases. This was due to Egyptair wanting to keep a warm coloured livery in the early days of the airline.
