Sphinx International Airport: Your Gateway to the Grand Egyptian Museum

Sphinx International Airport, known as SPX, is transforming how visitors arrive in Egypt. Located on the Cairo–Alexandria Desert Road, it offers travelers a direct path to the Great Pyramids of Giza and the Grand Egyptian Museum while avoiding the congestion of Cairo International Airport. The airport’s location makes it ideal for tourists and business travelers who value time, comfort, and proximity to Egypt’s most famous landmarks.

Built with efficiency in mind, SPX combines modern design with a passenger-friendly layout. Its terminals feature wide corridors, clear signage, and modern facilities that simplify every step of travel. Designed to handle millions of passengers each year, SPX continues to grow as airlines add new international routes and Egypt expands its tourism capacity. For visitors eager to start their journey near the pyramids or the museum, this airport provides the perfect point of entry.

OnePort’s Meet and Assist program helps travelers from the moment they arrive, guiding them through immigration, assisting with baggage, and arranging transport to their destinations. The service is particularly valuable for VIPs, families, and international guests who prefer personal attention and a quick, organized arrival process.
