Adnan Al-Abadleh, Director General of Arab Bridge Maritime Company (AB Maritime), which is owned by the governments of Egypt, Jordan and Iraq, stressed that the company continues to provide its services normally and safely, with its daily sea trips running regularly to carry passengers and tourist groups on both the international sea line (Aqaba – Nuweiba) and the tourist line (Aqaba – Taba).
Al-Abadleh stated that the company will increase the number of its sea trips during this period to accommodate the growing demand for its services and sea travel across its fleet, as many flights have been cancelled and postponed, noting that Arab Bridge is the main link between the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan and the Arab Republic of Egypt via the sea lines (Aqaba – Nuweiba) and the tourist line (Aqaba – Taba).
He pointed out that with many airlines suspending and cancelling flights or diverting to alternative routes due to the war in the region, which has left some people and tourist groups unable to complete their tour programs or travelers unable to return home, Arab Bridge is the safe option for travelers and tourist groups to reach their final destination through its regular and reliable sea trips, from which they can travel to any country in the world via Sharm El Sheikh Airport and Cairo International Airport.
He said Arab Bridge is currently able to transport Iraqi and Syrian citizens coming from Egypt to Baghdad and Damascus via the international Nuweiba–Aqaba sea line, whose airline bookings were cancelled due to current circumstances, after obtaining the necessary approvals.
He noted that the company allows travelers to book in advance easily through its accredited offices across Jordan and Egypt, or through the online booking system on its official website, giving travelers flexibility in choosing the travel times that suit them, according to the Egyptian Cabinet's page on Facebook.
