Deal in Dollars at the duty free as they price everything in it. With Sterling they use a conversion rate of 1.7 dollars to the pound. You get 1.92 to the pound here so you save money.

Hi Fiona - sorry just got back from Sharm again and only just seen your post. You will prob be best paying in dollars. I just paid in Egyptain and you lose out when the convert to le and then they say they have no change! Fly in and out of the old terminal this time and they were charging $15 for 200 L n M as opposed to $9 last month in the new terminal. Metro at Nabq were 48le for 200.
