Add to basketNo Binding. Condition: Good. Imperial Airways cream card printed in English on one side, French on the other 166x106mm. Good, creased, adapted by BOAC with their ink stamped name and ms and ink stamped entries on the English side (the French side is unfilled). Issued to an unnamed guest at the Cecil Hotel, this indicates the nex…t day's arrangements for a flight from Ras El Tin, Alexandria to Rome via Athens and Brindisi. The card is not dated but was likely issued between 1 April 1940 when Imperial was formally absorbed into BOAC, and 10 June 1940 when BOAC's route over Italy was closed with Italy's entry into WW2. Ras El Tin Marine Air Port had been established close to the Ras El Tin Palace in the late 1920s / early 1930s as part of Imperial's Mediterranean Route, and BOAC inherited this and their fleet of Short Empire flying boats. The card advises the guest to expect a call at 04.30; baggage to be outside the room at 05.00; tea or coffee & rolls to be served in the room; Currency Coupons to be cashed at £24 each; the car to leave Hotel Cecil at 05.30; departure from the airport at 06.00; stops at Athens, Brindisi, and Rome; breakfast, tea and lunch in-flight, with dinner in Rome; with BOAC's Enquiry Officer available at Ras El Tin for further information or assistance. Two ink stamps remind the guest not to take the room key. A pencilled "133" to the top left corner may be the room number. This dates to the Cecil Hotel's golden age. It opened in 1929, attracting a wide array of famous and infamous guests during the 1930s-40s, and served as a base for the British secret services. A unique survivor.
