Travellers will soon be able to fly directly between Amman (Jordan) and Brussels again, as Royal Jordanian announced that it will begin operating a new route between the two capital cities from the end of October.
From 26 October, Royal Jordanian will begin operating twice-weekly flights between Amman and Brussels (Brussels Airport Zaventem), allowing passengers to travel from Belgium to Jordan – and vice versa – in just four to five hours.
"Facilitating tourism to the Kingdom is a core focus of RJ’s new strategy—as is our commitment to further developing Amman as the main gateway to the Levant, by offering improved connectivity to our broader network," said Royal Jordanian Airlines Chief Commercial Officer, Karim Makhlouf.

This new route is another step in line with the airline's five-year growth plan, through which it also plans to significantly increase its fleet, from 24 aircraft to more than 40 in the next three to five years.
"We are very happy to welcome Royal Jordanian Airlines back to Brussels Airport after a 10-year absence and, in particular, to offer our passengers the opportunity to discover the city of Amman," said Brussels Airport CEO Arnaud Feist. "As a modern country with a rich history, Jordan is a true gem and a great destination for a city break or an extended stay."
