Aqaba: Arab Bridge Maritime Company continues to secure passenger transport between Jordan and Egypt efficiently and safely despite challenges facing the aviation sector in the region. Director General Adnan Al-Abadleh emphasized the company's commitment to maintaining daily sailings on the Aqaba-Nuweiba and Aqaba-Taba routes, ensuring full readiness to meet the growing demand for maritime transport during this period.
According to Jordan News Agency, Al-Abadleh highlighted the increase in the number of trips to accommodate the rising demand following the cancelation and postponement of numerous flights. Arab Bridge represents the main maritime link between Jordan and Egypt through the international Aqaba-Nuweiba route, which takes about two and a half hours, and the tourist Aqaba-Taba line, which takes around 30 minutes.
Al-Abadleh pointed out that the suspension, cancelation, or rerouting of flights by several airlines due to regional developments has left many travelers and tourist groups unable to complete their travel plans or return home. Arab Bridge provides a safe alternative with its regular and reliable sailings, enabling onward travel to destinations worldwide via Sharm El-Sheikh International Airport and Cairo International Airport.
The company is currently facilitating the transport of Iraqi and Syrian nationals arriving from Egypt to Baghdad and Damascus through the Nuweiba-Aqaba maritime route after obtaining the necessary approvals, following the cancelation of their flight bookings. Passengers can book easily through accredited offices in Jordan and Egypt or via the company's official online booking system, offering flexible travel options. Additionally, Arab Bridge provides competitive fares, making sea travel a safe and cost-effective choice in light of current economic conditions.
