Preparing for a repatriation flight
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Transavia are currently preparing to operate a repatriation flight from the Middle East to the Netherlands on Monday 9 March, from Hurghada in Egypt to Schiphol Airport. These passengers were previously transported from Oman to Egypt by a Ministry of Defence aircraft.
The flight is intended for people currently in the region who wish to return to the Netherlands. They can contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs via the Crisis Contact Form on the website . The ministry will then determine who is eligible for the available seats and will contact them. Due to the security situation, the ministry advises only coming to the airport after receiving confirmation.
Flights will, of course, only operate when circumstances permit. The safety of passengers and crew is always our top priority. The flight is expected to arrive at 4:45 PM and its flight number is HV7752.
Hurghada is a regular destination in Transavia's network. The regular flight schedule between the Netherlands and Egypt can be operated as usual. The repatriation flight is an extra flight to pick up passengers in Hurghada. These passengers were previously flown from Oman to Egypt on a Ministry of Defence aircraft.
