This new non-stop service four times weekly will be an addition to the existing daily bus routes offered by Royal Jordanian in the last 2 years between Amman Airport and Syria. By April 2025, the airline plans to increase the frequency to daily flights. The short flight time of 25 minutes between Amman and Damascus will be the shortest route from Damascus by air.

Samer Majali, CEO of Royal Jordanian Airlines, said: "Resuming our new flights to Damascus emphasise our commitment to be one the first airlines to offer international connectivity to the Syrian market. Amman has long served as the gateway to Syria, enabling travellers from the U.S. and Europe to connect to the region. We are pleased to announce the resumption with four weekly flights, expanding to daily service in April, and look forward to reconnecting Syria to the world.”
