There are more significant safety or security concerns than you would usually find in New Zealand, with some areas where you should avoid non-essential travel or avoid all travel.
Conflicts in the Middle East could result in an increase in tensions elsewhere in the region. The security situation in the region could deteriorate without notice, and may result in further travel disruptions. Monitor the media to stay informed about current events in your travel destination.
Other things that New Zealanders travelling or living in Egypt should be aware of are:
New Zealanders travelling or living in Egypt should have a comprehensive travel insurance policy in place that includes provision for medical evacuation by air. Medical facilities and services in Egypt are not of the same standard as in New Zealand.
