TL;DR
The chat did not settle on a firm current threshold, but one older benchmark mentioned was about 50,000–60,000 RUB for 14 days for two travelers, and that was 10 years ago. If you add activities like diving, ultra-cheap $10 offers usually mean a very short session rather than a full experience.
The discussion framed the issue as finding the price point where a 10-day trip for two in Sharm El Sheikh stops being ultra-budget. No exact current figure was agreed, so this works more as a rough marker for travel above the cheapest category.
One participant gave an older personal benchmark: around 50,000–60,000 RUB for 14 days for two used to be a normal price, and they paid no more than that about 10 years ago. For current planning, this is only a historical reference point.
If you are including diving in the budget, the chat noted that $10 offers in Sharm El Sheikh are usually too limited: they may mean roughly a 2-hour option for certified divers rather than a full dive trip.
