Pick a Compact car like the Nissan Sunny for about £29 a day at Hurghada Airport in October 2026, which makes resort parking far simpler. It seats 5 people but takes only 2 bags, so stepping up to an Intermediate like the Nissan Sentra gives room for 4 bags at £44 a day. Dropping down to a Mini like the Hyundai i10 costs £23 a day but holds just 1 bag. Because 99% of cars offered are automatic, you will rarely need to pay extra or search hard if you do not drive a manual.
