:Egypt increases fees for tourists entry visas: Airport official

Egypt is increasing fees for entry visas from $25 to $60 for incoming tourists starting 1 March, an airport official told Ahram Online on Friday.
The foreign ministry informed airport security officials about the fee increase earlier this week, the source added.
Egypt last pushed up the fee for its visa in April 2014, when it was increased from $15 to $25.
Several tour operators have said that the decision would cause problems for tourists who booked trips based on the old rate.
Some in the tourism sector say the decision should have been announced several months beforehand, expressing fears that the move might affect the country's efforts to revive tourism, a pillar of the economy and a key source of foreign currency.
Egypt has struggled to attract tourists pushed away by the political turmoil that followed the 2011 uprising.
The country’s revenues from tourism dropped to $3.4 billion in 2016, a 44.3 percent drop from the previous year, the Central Bank of Egypt said in January. The figure is a far cry from the $11 billion in revenues generated by the sector in 2010, when 14.7 million tourists visited the country.
Egypt is postponing a fee hike in tourist entry visas - a decision announced last week - until July, the country’s tourism ministry said on Saturday.
In statements to state news agency MENA, the ministry said the new fee -- which will increase from $25 to $60 -- will be implemented starting 1 July 2017, instead of a planned 1 March date.
The ministry did not provide a reason for the delay, however, sources in the tourism sector told Al-Ahram Arabic news website that the decision to postpone came after the foreign ministry stepped in to deal with complaints from the tourism sector to the cabinet saying the fee hike was too abrupt.
Representatives from the sector reached out to the cabinet last week to ask it to adjust the timeline for the fee hike, in order to maintain agreements with foreign travel operators based on the old rates.
