CV transit of Suez Canal ?

The news of GW heading north thru the canal has a photo of the a/c on deck w/
sealed canopies. Have seen several similar photos of other CV transits.

Why is that done? Prevent damage in case of a sand storm? If so, are intakes
and exhausts also covered for those birds? TIA.
