Queen Alia International Airport (QAIA) has announced that Royal Jordanian Airlines has established a new direct route between Amman and Düsseldorf, Germany, at a rate of two flights per week every Saturday and Wednesday.
The inaugural flight was greeted with the customary water arch salute in the presence of Airport International Group and Royal Jordanian representatives.
“We are excited to receive this inaugural flight from the vibrant German city of Düsseldorf, emphasizing the steadfast efforts of all QAIA partners to steadily expand our destination network and link our passengers with major cities across the globe, while fostering a welcoming experience that feels like home via Jordan’s prime gateway to the world,” Nicolas Claude, Airport International Group CEO.
Karim Makhlouf, Royal Jordanian’s Chief Commercial Officer, said, “It is my great pleasure to announce our new route to Düsseldorf in Germany, which will make it easier than ever for tourists from Germany to discover Jordan’s incredible wonders.
“Helping promote and drive tourism to the Kingdom is a key focus of our new corporate strategy—as is our emphasis on further developing Amman as the primary gateway to the Levant, by offering improved connectivity to our broader network.
“This newest route is yet another step in line with RJ’s ambitious five-year growth plan, which includes increasing our current fleet of 24 aircraft to more than 40 aircraft in the coming three to five years.”
