Emirates will add a third daily flight from Dubai to Jordan from 01 August, representing a further ramping up of services to Amman.
EK 905 will depart Dubai at 2155hrs and arrive in Amman at 2359hrs. The return flight, EK 906, will depart at 0345hrs and touch down in Dubai at 0745hrs. A combination of B777 and A330-200 aircraft will be used.
Jordan is one of the most popular tourism destinations in the Middle East and amongst the airline’s earliest routes, launching in 1986.
In 2013, total trade between the UAE and Jordan exceeded US$1 billion, according to statistics published by the Dubai Chamber of Commerce and Industry. Tourism represents approximately 10 per cent of Jordan’s GDP.
With the three daily flights, Emirates SkyCargo says the main commodities to be exported from Amman include fruits, vegetables, pharmaceuticals, clothing and electronics. Goods being imported include seafood, meat, pharmaceuticals and automotive spare parts.
