The Flying Angel is a vessel built and funded by charitable gift. It’s purpose is to provide seafarers at anchor off the coast of Fujairah, UAE, with vital contact with family and friends. This web site has been developed to promote The Flying Angel’s work and to encourage individuals and companies to support the project


The Flying Angel is a project conceived by The Rev’d. Stephen Miller Director of the Mission to Seafarers (MTS) in Dubai, UAE  - an organisation that cares for seafarers regardless of race or religion in over 300 ports around the world. 95% percent of all World Trade is transported by sea, which in turn depends on the seafarers who crew the world’s fleet. In the UAE however, over 99.3% of all goods arrive by ship


Launched 28th February 2007 by HRH Prince Charles, Motor Vessel Flying Angel (M/V Flying Angel) now gives comfort to thousands of seafarers who often go through long periods of isolation, loneliness and separation from their families in order to bring us the goods we depend upon in our daily lives at home and at work. We depend upon seafarers in our daily lives, help us to support them

To coincide with the launch of Topaz’s newly restructured business streams and in line with their serious commitment to corporate & social responsibility, Topaz is generously sponsoring the full running and maintenance costs of The Flying Angel for the year from October 2009 to October 2010

We are truly indebted to our generous sponsor, who will enable The Flying Angel to take a huge step towards achieving her goal of becoming self-sustaining 

The Angel Appeal Bracelet is launched - The bracelets are now available at the StarBlu Resort Wear shop in the Westin Mina Seyahi
