Getting to the Total Solar Eclipse

I'm giving consideration to getting to the total solar eclipse this March.
Turkey, Egypt and Libya seem to be good spots, but I'd like to make this as
simple and economical as possible. It would be good to fly directly to some
city near the path from say England, probably London. Maybe a two day visit
to a place along the path with an overnight stay. I'm completely unfamiliar
with those three countries, but have traveled to Europe several times.
Alexandria looks tempting, and certainly has historic interest. I would
imagine there's some transportation to Musaid, which is on the coast 300
miles W of Alexandria, and smack on the path. Any suggestions?
