Families of Egyptian businessmen leave Cairo
 CAIRO -- An official at Cairo airport says 19 private jets carrying families of wealthy Egyptian and Arab businessmen have flown out of the capital.
| "Boeing 757 don't fall us now!" |
Come fly with me
Let's fly, let's fly away... |
The official said the jets left Saturday carrying dozens of family members of Egypt's business elite. He said most of the planes were headed for Dubai.
| Beats Saudi-controlled Arabia if you're an Egyptian. |
The passengers included the families of telecom mogul Naguib Sawiris, the executive chairman of Orascom Telecom,

and Hussein Salem, a hotel tycoon and close confidant of President Hosni Mubarak.
| They'll all be 'former close confidants' real soon. Then they'll be 'Hosni? Hosni who?' |
