New Travel Advisory For Egypt

The British Embassy has released this travel advisory for egypt:
  • In light of the ongoing demonstrations, we advise against all but essential travel to Cairo, Alexandria, Luxor and Suez.  This does not affect transits through Cairo airport for onward travel to other destinations, although there is some disruption to flight schedules.  A nationwide curfew is in place from 1600 to 0800 local time.  The Egyptian authorities have  blocked mobile telephone and internet communications.  
It sounds like my trip may be diverted somewhere else this year. Boo..
