Royal Jordanian Airlines has announced the launch of a new nonstop route between Mumbai, India, and Amman, Jordan, commencing operations on June 19, 2025. This strategic expansion will operate year-round with four flights per week—on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays—aboard the modern Airbus A320neo. The introduction of this service marks a significant milestone in strengthening the relationship between India and Jordan, enhancing tourism, trade, and cultural exchange between the two nations. The nonstop route will connect Mumbai’s Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport (BOM) with Queen Alia International Airport (AMM) in Amman, providing a more convenient travel option for passengers wishing to explore Jordan.
For travelers from India, this new service presents a seamless gateway to one of the world’s most historic and culturally rich destinations, with the added convenience of visa-free entry when booking tourist packages. Karim Makhlouf, Chief Commercial Officer of Royal Jordanian, stated, “Jordan is a captivating country with a unique blend of ancient history and modern vitality. Through this new route, we are excited to offer Indian tourists the chance to experience the magic of our country firsthand. This expansion reflects our commitment to showcasing Jordan’s exceptional allure and the hospitality that awaits every visitor.”
A Direct Link to Jordan’s Ancient Wonders and Natural Beauty
Royal Jordanian’s new flights provide Indian tourists with an unparalleled opportunity to visit Jordan’s awe-inspiring landmarks, such as the rose-red city of Petra, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The route offers access to the healing waters of the Dead Sea and the dramatic desert landscapes of Wadi Rum, making it easier than ever to experience the richness of Jordan’s history and natural wonders. The airline’s commitment to facilitating cultural exchange is evident, with the new route acting as a bridge for travelers eager to delve into the ancient heritage of the region.
The addition of Mumbai to the airline’s global network further strengthens Royal Jordanian’s position as a leading carrier in the Middle East. The airline is dedicated to providing travelers with easy access to Jordan’s cultural gems while also supporting the country’s tourism industry by making it easier for international visitors to discover Jordan’s wonders.
An Economic and Cultural Bridge Between India and Jordan
The new nonstop flights between Mumbai and Amman serve as more than just a convenient travel option; they act as a cultural and economic bridge between India and Jordan. This expanded connectivity is expected to foster deeper tourism, trade, and cultural exchange between the two nations. As one of the most important cities in the Levant region, Amman offers Indian tourists the chance to explore its vibrant culture, while also providing seamless access to destinations such as Aqaba, the Dead Sea, and the famous archaeological site of Petra.
Isha Goyal, CEO of STIC Travel Group, expressed her enthusiasm about the launch of the new route, stating, “The introduction of the Mumbai–Amman nonstop service is a significant milestone in bringing our countries closer. Jordan has always held a special place in India’s heart, and this new flight will strengthen our cultural and economic ties. At STIC Travel, we are committed to fostering partnerships that enrich the travel experience and promote tourism to emerging destinations like Jordan.”
This nonstop flight service is expected to boost Indian travelers’ interest in visiting Jordan, a destination that has been somewhat underexplored despite its rich history and natural beauty. With its historical sites, warm hospitality, and a welcoming atmosphere, Jordan offers an authentic Arabian experience just a few hours away from India.
