Key Takeaways:

Royal Jordanian is planning to add a new destination to its route map next year. This new route will mark the Jordanian flag carrier’s fifth U.S. destination, and sixth in North America.

Starting in May 2026, the airline will link Amman, Jordan, and Dallas/Fort Worth. Flights will operate four times per week on a year-round basis, DFW Airport officials announced Wednesday.

“Welcoming Royal Jordanian to DFW is another exciting step in growing our global network,” said Chris McLaughlin, DFW’s Chief Executive Officer, in a news release. “This new nonstop connection to Amman is a first for North Texas and will expand our reach into the Middle East and further grow DFW’s role as a key international gateway.”

The carrier’s Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner will be used on the new route, which seats up to 270 passengers. A specific start date for the route was not provided.

In the U.S., Royal Jordanian also serves Detroit, Chicago O’Hare, New York-JFK, and recently began flights to Washington Dulles. It also serves Montreal in Canada, along with several destinations in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East.
