United Airlines Inaugurates Nonstop Service Between Amman and Washington, DC
With the introduction of this new capital-to-capital route, the first-ever nonstop service between Amman and Washington DC, United is the only US airline flying from Jordan with this new three-time weekly nonstop service between Queen Alia International Airport and its hub at Washington Dulles, according to a statement from the airlines.
Royal Jordanian says providing a link between Toronto, ON and Amman is part of a strategy that will see both its fleet and the number of passengers it carries grow dramatically in the next few years.

Why Jordan Is the Perfect Place to Start Your Middle East Adventure

Most international airlines have amassed such far-reaching route networks that even the most remote corners of the world feel connected and accessible to travelers.

A Road Trip Through Jordan's Most Fascinating Sites
This was my first time to the Middle East, and my knowledge of Jordan was limited to its proximity to the Dead Sea, the mighty rock formations of Petra, and of course, scenes from Indiana Jones. A weeklong journey through the country deepened my understanding of the region and included visits to some of its most visited sites.
With its Crusader castles and Roman ruins, the Dead Sea and the rose-colored jewel of Petra, the Jordan Trail leads walkers into its poetic, colorful heart. A journey over 45 days and thousands of years, the Jordan Trail is a long-distance walking route that runs north to south through one of the Middle Eastern’s most fascinating countries.
