CAIRO: New flight routes from Egypt to Baghdad, Iraq and Erbil, Kurdistan will operate by the end of August, according to the chairman of the EgyptAir holding company, Hussin Masoud. Masoud said the operations have been postponed because of delayed visa issues and licenses required for operation with high standards. He said company flights will take off on Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays every week to Baghdad, Iraq. There will be 145 seats available taking off on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays every week to Erbil, which is considered the capital of Kurdistan.
