TL;DR
Based on recent traveler reports, Hurghada package holidays for January-February are not always cheapest far in advance: prices can drop about a month before departure. However, package inclusions with operators like Biblio may change by season, so it is worth confirming exactly what is included before paying.
A mid-July update suggested not rushing to book for the following January-February. According to traveler experience shared in the chat, the same season became cheaper about one month before departure, so early booking did not always give the best price.
One example mentioned a Biblio package: a March-April holiday was booked back in November, and the show was not included at that time. From January onward, the same show started being bundled into the package, so seasonal inclusions with the tour operator can change.
If your trip depends on a specific show or excursion, travelers recommend checking the current rules directly with the seller or official chat before going. In March there were reports of visitors being turned away, which could mean wasted time and taxi money.
