Air Arabia Jordan (Amman Queen Alia) has announced that it will commence scheduled operations on Monday, May 18, with flights from Amman Queen Alia to Kuwait. Additional services to Jeddah International, Erbil, and Sharm el Sheikh will roll out in the days to follow. Flights are on-board two A320-200s that will be based in Amman.
“We are confident of the business growth prospects in the Kingdom and the wider region as well as the increasing demand for affordable air travel," Adel A. Ali, Group Chief Executive Officer of Air Arabia said. "We look forward to the launch of Air Arabia Jordan operations and to working with our partners to contribute to Jordan’s aviation and tourism growth over the coming months and years.”
The Jordanian LCC was formed this year when Jordanian owner RUM Group sold a 49% stake in its Petra Airlines (Amman Queen Alia) subsidiary to Air Arabia (G9, Sharjah).
