Amadeus IT Group SA and Royal Jordanian have shared a solid commercial relationship since 2009, managing the airline’s passenger services systems, including reservations, inventory and departure control. Recently, the two partners reached an understanding that focuses on their capability to help the underprivileged schools in Jordan by providing them with computers that are in excellent condition to be used for educational and training purposes.

 
The initiative aims to support the project designed to train the less fortunate youth in Jordan in education, tourism-related skills and technology, aiding the development of schools and underprivileged social segments in remote locations in the Kingdom.
 
The training will be run by the Jordanian development initiative Madrasati, which helps facilitate quality education, leading to progress and transformation in the youth, and fostering the economic and social development of the nation. It also contributes to the effective battle against poverty and illiteracy. The Jordan Hashemite Fund for Human Development (JOHUD), a non-profit, non-governmental organization, also takes part to make this initiative a success. JOHUD is dedicated to promoting rights based on sustainable human development in Jordan.
 
RJ President and CEO Amer Hadidi said: “We are glad to cooperate with our partner, Amadeus IT Group, to strengthen the airline’s social bond with the society. RJ is aware of its social responsibility and the role that the private sector can play in sustaining development and collaborating to make a difference in the lives of hundreds of young people who most need it.
 
“This donation, done jointly with Amadeus Group, contributes to the concept that has been part of RJ’s philosophy during its 50 years of existence, which aims to support the community and build a continuous relationship between the airline and the society at large.”
