Cheap Royal Jordanian Flights (RJ)
Overview
Royal Jordanian, the national carrier of The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, was established in 1963 under the name "Alia," to become one of the first airlines in the region. It was privatised in December 2007 - the Jordanian government retained a 29 per cent holding with the next biggest shareholder, a company in the M1 group, with 19 per cent.
Royal Jordanian started its operations with three aircraft operating to three regional destinations.
With a network of 55 destinations in four continents today, Royal Jordanian is currently one of the largest airlines in the MENA region.
Royal Jordanian has always carried out its role as goodwill ambassador and bridge across which Jordan exchanges culture, civilization, trade, technology, friendship, and better understanding with the rest of the world, and sustains its vision of being the airline of choice connecting Jordan and the Levant with the world. Accordingly, Royal Jordanian is continually modernizing and upgrading its services, renewing the fleet, and expanding its route network and operations.

With some 4,400 staff, Royal Jordanian carried more than 2.7 million passengers in 2008.
