Is there a business class lounge at Hurghada airport for flights to Russia?

TL;DR

No — passengers on direct flights from Hurghada to Russia are processed in a separate terminal section where no business lounge is available.

What the community said

For direct flights from Hurghada to Russia, passengers wait in a separate holding area and cannot access the main departures hall or the area with most duty-free shops. Because of that, it is better to buy food or snacks in advance.

Following a plane crash, Russian authorities required a dedicated section of Hurghada airport for direct Russia flights. That section has no business lounge.

The operational rules for the Russia-dedicated terminal section do not include a business lounge, and access to one is effectively not possible.
