There was, maybe still is, a Saudi cruise line intent on launching Red Sea cruises. Ii guess these was aiming to tempt Jeddites with the heady delighs of Jordan and Egypt. Maybe not Yemen.
If you look on Google you'll see one right off the Arabian Sea. It's in Damman. That's where they're docking. I'll be on two of those cruises as long as it's still a go. Don't care if I get off. Not so much interested in going to SA.
