A layover in Cairo (CAI) is a chance for crews to reset before the next sector — if the rest window is protected. Aircrew Travel plans Cairo layovers around the crew, not the other way round.
Protecting the rest window
Strategic napping and light exposure help crews cope with the window of circadian low after landing in Cairo. Aircrew Travel pairs fast transfers with quiet rooms so sleep can start sooner.
Beating jet lag in Cairo
Beyond sleep, hydration, light meals and gentle movement help crews feel human again in Cairo. Properties with a gym, healthy dining and daylight access make a measurable difference.
- Get natural daylight at the right local time to shift the body clock
- Stay hydrated and keep late meals light
- Keep the room dark and cool to lengthen usable sleep in Cairo
- Use short naps strategically rather than one long, mistimed sleep
Staying safe and on schedule
Knowing the pick-up will be there on time is half of a restful layover. Aircrew Travel manages the Cairo transport so crews never have to improvise.
