Unfortunately, unmarried women in Egypt do not have free will. Under many circumstances, she would be stopped if a family files a complaint. And things can get worst for her from there. If she can get a copy of the visa; she can go in transit to Israel, Jordan or Tunisia and get on a plane to the US. The key is to get her over the Egyptian border before they know she is gone. The Sinai needs a special pass to visit Dahab or Nueba; however, she can hop on a ferry to Jordan and catch a flight if she has the visa in hand. Good luck.
