How to find a better ELQ to CAI fare
Price depends heavily on travel date, booking window, baggage, cabin and whether you need a direct flight. The landing page should make those trade-offs obvious rather than burying them inside results.

Direct vs one stop
A connecting itinerary can reduce the headline fare, but the extra journey time can be substantial. Put total duration next to price in the results UI.
Cabin and baggage matter
The cheapest fare is not always the lowest total cost once checked bags, seat selection and change conditions are included.
Cairo uses multiple airports
This campaign page is specifically ELQ to CAI. If you later target "Gassim to Cairo" broadly, test a separate version instead of silently changing the airport.
