To note, the first charter flight funded by the Armenian government has already flown to Hurghada. Passengers of flight OTF 3703 Hurghada-Yerevan, who were supposed to fly to Yerevan yesterday, July 25, because of the dishonesty of the tour operator were stuck in Egypt. As it became known yesterday, Armenian tourists who purchased vouchers from the A & R tour company could not fly out of Hurghada due to the cancellation of the flight. About 100 people from yesterday are either at the airport or in hotels and cannot fly back. As it became known, the tour company canceled tours to Egypt in the direction of Sharm el-Sheikh and Hurghada. In total, about 400 Armenian tourists, including those who have not yet flown out, those who cannot return, as well as tourists, whose vouchers expire in a few days, have suffered from the actions of the travel agency. Relatives of Armenian tourists stuck in Hurghada gathered on the eve outside the office of the company A & R tour in Yerevan. They were joined by representatives of other travel agencies, who booked packages through A & R tour, demanding an explanation about the delay and cancellation of flights.
