KlasJet Operates Summer Charter Flights to Egypt From Milan & Sharjah

Lithuanian-based charter carrier KlasJet has signed a summer agreement with Egypt’s Air Cairo to operate flights from Milan and Sharjah to Cairo, running until October 31st, 2025. The partnership aims to support rising seasonal travel demand and improve connectivity between Egypt and key regional markets in Europe and the Gulf.

Air Cairo, partially owned by EgyptAir, operates charter routes to Egypt’s tourist hubs and currently flies a fleet of over 30 Airbus A320s. The new collaboration allows the airline to expand its reach using aircraft and crew supplied by KlasJet under an ACMI (Aircraft, Crew, Maintenance, and Insurance) arrangement.

The agreement, which was finalised just days before operations began, marks the first time Air Cairo has partnered with an ACMI provider based in an EU aviation safety jurisdiction. Flights began at the end of May with services out of Milan and Sharjah expected to continue throughout the peak summer months.

The move comes as Egypt’s tourism industry sees sustained growth, with revenues reaching USD 4.8 billion during last year’s third quarter. The additional capacity is expected to ease travel access from Europe and the UAE, key source markets for Egypt’s tourism sector.

KlasJet, known for operating private and group charter flights, is part of Avia Solutions Group, a major player in global aviation services. Its fleet is based across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, with operations spanning charter, wet lease, and aviation support services.
