Sharm el Sheikh and other cities in the Red Sea area are safe AND far away from Cairo and Alexandria! Also according to travel advice from European countries.

Just take care around Sharm - there is alot of trouble around the Sinai region - and the last time it all kicked off there there were bombs in dahab/sharm.

Hello people (nass ) i live in Sharm since around 3 years, and that i heard, the last time there was a bomb attack here was in 2008 or something like that!!! I went Dabad 2 weeks ago and it was ok in there too... I Just had to show my passport in the route check in.
Everything fine here Alhamdulillah
