Aswan International Airport is situated 25km SSW of the city, on the west bank and just south of the high dam. Public buses don't go to the airport and security on the approach road to the terminal is tight, so it's probably worth taking a taxi, for which you must agree a price in advance. It is possible to argue the fare down to LE25, but LE30 to LE40 is more realistic and easier for most foreigners.
The following airlines operate services to Aswan International Airport: Air Memphis to/from Abu Simbel VERY bad quality, Astraeus to/from London Gatwick, EgyptAir (http://www.egyptair.com/E...) to/from Abu Simbel, Cairo, Luxor, Iberworld (http://www.iberworld.com/) to/from Madrid, and LotusAir to/from Cairo
