Hi welcome to HT :wave:

there wasn't drinkable tap water

You should not drink the tap water in Egypt either, however you can get bottled water either supplied by your hotel or purchase it very cheaply, filtered water is supplied in the hotels, fruit etc is perfactly safe to eat as long as it is rinsed in either the filtered or bottled water, all the hotels use filtered water for cooking and rinsing food the exact same as it is in Tunisia.

Is it a long flight?

Flight time from London to Sharm is in the region of 5 hrs

As with any other foreign resorts, dont drink the tap water as our stomachs cant handle the change in content of the water. Its not that its dirty etc although in less developed countries i wouldnt be so sure.

Egypt is a lovely country and if you went in the right month would be very peaceful and not too hot for your baby. Stay away from summer months as the temps would be far too hot.

Flight time is anything between 4.5-5.5 hours.

As with the food i think if you choose a reputable hotel the food hygiene should be fine with no stomach upsets although you cant gurantee this as it may not be from the food. I was fine last year but my partner got a little ill whilst there but nothing some medication wouldnt fix.
