About This Airport

Berenice (EES) is a tourism airport first and foremost, opened to civil traffic in January 2020 to give divers and beachgoers direct access to the southern Red Sea resorts. Converted from the Banas Cape Air Base, it relieves Marsa Alam and handles charter and scheduled holiday flights rather than freight. No cargo terminal or freighter service operates here. Goods bound for the region are routed via Cairo (CAI) or Hurghada and trucked down the coast, so forwarders should not count EES as an airfreight option.
