Be sure to arrive at either port at least two hours early and be prepared for delays at either end. Cancellations are not uncommon due to bad weather and it’s best to avoid travelling during holidays and pilgrimage times when thousands head to the port on route to Saudi Arabia. Visas for both Egypt and Jordan are available on arrival to US, EU, Canadian, and Australian passport. Read more about Egyptian Visas.
