I am going to be traveling to Egypt in October and I am having difficulty finding flights that do not have a layover in Europe. No matter what airline, it's all layovers in Heathrow, Munich, Brussels, etc...
Does anyone know of a flight booking service that lets me sort by layover destination?

Well, if you search for flights on Momondo, when you get your results, you can filter the layover locations. All you have to do is expand the "Via" column on the left, and uncheck all the European airports.
Check Turkish Airlines; they'll route you through Istanbul if they have to fly 3000 miles out of their way to do it.

Can't help but wonder why you want to avoid layovers in Europe.
I did a quick search, and from where I am (West Coast, USA) most of my options are indeed via various European airports, with a few key exceptions: Turkish, as noted above, goes through IST, and the Emirati airlines go via Abu Dhabi or Dubai, respectively. But the flights via Europe are all cheaper and faster.
Like Momondo, above, Kayak also offers a dropdown list of transit airports, and allows you, as desired, to uncheck as many unwanted airports as you like.
But I don't know where you're going, where you're departing from, or why you don't want to pass through Europe for a few hours. Is there a warrant for your arrest in the EU?

Oh, and there are direct/nonstop flights to Cairo from JFK, too, if you're OK with passing through the US.

I didn't want to say it because I was worried it would derail the thread but I no longer feel comfortable traveling through Europe since it's basically Pakistan now. So I would prefer to avoid it.

I want to carry some weed with me and the risk of getting caught is higher if I have a layover in Europe.

>Not-OP here. Are there any sites that let you search layover hours as a parameter?
>I think this is a legitimate concern. If I'm flying internationally, I don't want anything less than an hour, but I also would prefer to avoid anything greater than 4 hours.
Interesting question, and not that I've noticed. But you always get total travel time and number of layovers from Kayak, for example (the site I use most often). And Kayak and some other sites will indicate very short layovers with a warning. So it can be sorted pretty easily that way.
I typically rule out the one or two longest itineraries when I'm comparing routes, as they'll always include at least one long stopover. And I won't typically book anything with a transfer time of less than an hour, even though these are pretty rare unless you're combining multiple carriers.
