TL;DR
There is no single rule: some Egypt hotels will prepare a breakfast box if you request it in advance, while others do not allow guests to take buffet food out. If you have an early flight or excursion, check with reception the day before.
At one Egypt hotel, staff stopped a guest from taking bread rolls from breakfast in a bag on departure day. Practical takeaway: many hotels actively enforce a no-takeaway rule for buffet food, even on check-out day.
Travelers noticed that some guests make a stack of sandwiches at breakfast, usually for an early flight or excursion. That suggests some hotels are relaxed about it, but the policy clearly varies by property.
If you need a breakfast box on departure day, do not assume it is included automatically: ask reception or guest relations in advance. Travelers usually need this for early airport transfers and full-day excursions.
