Arab Bridge carried about 10,000 passengers over the past 3 days via the Nuweiba–Aqaba sea line and the Aqaba–Taba tourist line
The Ministry of Transport, represented by the Arab Bridge Maritime Company, which is owned by Egypt, Jordan and Iraq, affirmed that the company continues to provide its ferry services to passengers through its fleet operating on the international sea line (Aqaba–Nuweiba) normally and safely, with daily scheduled sailings running regularly according to their set, pre-scheduled times.
The Ministry of Transport announced in a statement that Arab Bridge has operated a number of additional sailings in recent days to accommodate the demand and the growing numbers seeking the company's services and sea travel via its fleet, amid the delicate circumstances the region is currently experiencing, especially with the cancellation or postponement of many flights in several countries in the region.
It explained that Arab Bridge Maritime is the main link between the Arab Republic of Egypt and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan through the following sea lines:
The Aqaba–Nuweiba sea line (trip duration: two and a half hours)
The Aqaba–Taba tourist line (trip duration: 30 minutes)
The ministry stated that Arab Bridge is the strategic and safe choice and alternative for travelers and tourist groups to reach their final destinations through its regular and reliable sea trips connecting the Jordanian port of Aqaba with the ports of Taba and Nuweiba in Egypt, from which passengers can travel on to European countries, the Americas and other countries around the world via Sharm El-Sheikh Airport and Cairo International Airport, noting that the overland journey from Nuweiba to Sharm El-Sheikh takes only two hours.
The Ministry of Transport revealed that Arab Bridge has carried more than 10,000 passengers over the past three days, via either the Nuweiba–Aqaba sea line or the Aqaba–Taba tourist line. The company adheres to the highest maritime safety standards and is keen to ensure the continuity of its services safely and reliably, making it the optimal choice for students, tourist groups, pilgrims, businesspeople and anyone whose flights have been canceled or rescheduled, especially given the ease of booking and ticket prices that are affordable for everyone.
It is worth noting that Arab Bridge 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, www.abmaritime.com.jo, giving travelers flexibility in choosing travel times that suit them. It also offers reasonable prices that take into account the current economic conditions of all segments of citizens, making sea travel an economical and safe option, according to the official Facebook page of the Egyptian Cabinet.
