Outlook for 2022
Greetings and Happy New Year!
We are excited about 2022 and are looking forward to welcoming more travelers back to Jordan, allowing Jordanians to do what they do best – providing warm and welcoming hospitality. Jordan is open for business and has Covid protocols in place to ensure safety for all travelers upon arrival in the country.
The North American market continues to rank as number one for incoming visitors to Jordan and we hope to continue this trend as travel begins to normalize once again.
As we prepare for 2022, here are just a few highlights to look forward to this year:
Royal Jordanian is increasing flights out of Chicago, New York, Detroit and Montreal, and rumor has it we may see an increase in more destinations. Stay tuned!
United Airlines will launch their non-stop flights from Washington Dulles to Amman on May 5th, 2022. United will operate flights to Amman 3x a week!
Plans to expand Jordan's Meaningful Travel Map to give travelers even more choices to connect locally. Stay tuned for more details.
The addition of As-Salt to the UNESCO World Heritage Sites brings Jordan’s total to 6.
Cloud7 Hotel is a new gem in the spectacular lifestyle destination of Ayla Oasis, welcoming the next generation of travelers and guests seeking unique experiences in the heart of Aqaba.
Our team is here to partner with you and to help educate travelers and our travel trade partners on the many experiences available across Jordan, the health and safety protocols in place and to provide you with all the information you need to showcase Jordan as a safe and desirable place to visit. In the meantime, stay tuned for continued travel updates and developments.
We look forward to saying "Hala hala" and "Ahlan wa sahlan fi al Urdun", welcome to Jordan!
Hiking the Jordan Trail changed my life – and I’m not alone
Back in 2017, I thru-hiked the Jordan Trail. On a map, the long and squiggly line links the country’s northern border with the Red Sea. I hiked into the labyrinth of stone ruins at Petra, then across the wide-open red deserts of Wadi Rum, where I slept under an astonishing sky of stars. I completed the trail in 40 days and returned home a changed person.
When it comes to health and wellness, Jordan’s Dead Sea coast is the land of the living. After too many months indoors and way too much screen-time, I needed to stretch my body and clear my mind. I wanted a new adventure and hoped for a little rejuvenation along the way. I found it all at the Dead Sea.
Jordanian ancestral hospitality, its exceptional landscape, and its ancient history make the country the ultimate pilgrimage and adventure destination. The many different paths the pilgrim can discover in Jordan are all bursting with religious meaning: these are all the same landscapes Moses, Aaron, Elijah, the Baptist, and Jesus walked through.
Next time you think of a special destination to spend Christmas (or Easter), make sure you think of Jordan. Christmas in Jordan is celebrated all across the country — from the ancient ruins of Gadara, in the north, to the pristine shores of Aqaba, in the south.
