First, I don't think any of our carriers can fit in the Suez Canal,

They can fit through the deep, flat, and wide Suez Canal. It's the Panama Canal -- narrow and shallow with lots of locks -- that the carriers cannot fit through.

Yeah, I got that figured out after someone posted a photo of a CVN going through the Suez Canal.
