He emphasized the significance of the Suez Canal and the Red Sea as a cruising experience.
During the four-day event, Felix Maritime will present its services covering Suez Canal transit planning, yacht clearances, and operational support for vessels cruising in Egyptian waters. The company offers comprehensive support to owners and captains throughout their journey through Egypt, including canal transit, clearances, and services in Egyptian waters.
The Monaco Yacht Show brings together yacht owners, captains, brokers, management companies, and other industry participants. It provides a platform for companies and destinations involved in the global superyacht sector to showcase their services. Egypt's participation in the event is expected to promote its maritime services and yachting industry.

By showcasing its services and capabilities, Egypt aims to attract more yacht owners and operators to its waters.
