This came during his tour of the airport, which serves the North Coast region and New Alamein, and is considered one of the important regional airports.
During the tour, Manar inspected the travel and arrival halls, passport counters, baggage belts, the control tower and the airstrip, and was told of the readiness of the equipment for ground services.
He was also briefed about the application of security measures, as well as the implementation of preventive measures to ensure the safety of passengers and airport workers during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The minister said that Egypt’s political leadership attached great importance to the New Alamein (project), which will provide many investment opportunities.
The North Coast project contains a large number of tourist resorts with distinctive coastal villages and charming Egyptian beaches.
The Egyptian president has spoken of the need to prepare to receive more trips to activate internal and external tourist numbers.
New Alamein is the second major project implemented by the Egypt’s Ministry of Housing after the New Administrative Capital project, with the target population for 2030 being about 4 million people.
New Alamein has witnessed the implementation of a number of residential and service projects, including the beach towers project: 15 towers are to be finished in the first phase, and eight towers in the second.
