Jordan is a straightforward trip from the US, with a nonstop option to Amman and solid one-stop coverage. Here is the full picture, and how we can book it for you.
Nonstop and one-stop options
- Royal Jordanian flies nonstop to Amman (AMM) from New York (JFK), Chicago (ORD), Washington (IAD) and Detroit (DTW).
- From other US cities, you connect once, usually through a Gulf hub or Europe, which is often the better-value choice.
The airlines and hubs
- Royal Jordanian, nonstop, to Amman from the four gateways above.
- Qatar via Doha, Emirates via Dubai, Etihad via Abu Dhabi, Turkish via Istanbul, and European carriers all reach Amman with a single stop.
Our best airlines guide compares the connecting carriers.
When it is cheapest
The best value is late autumn, winter and early spring, outside the holidays. Spring and autumn are peak for Petra and the Dead Sea, and fares around Eid are higher. For more, see the cheapest time to fly.
How to catch a deal
Royal Jordanian and the Gulf carriers run seasonal fare sales, and a connecting fare often undercuts the nonstop. Flexible dates and fare alerts help you catch them. See how to secure airline promotions.
