Jordan has announced the resumption of flights from the Yemeni capital, Sana’a, to Amman, starting Thursday. This decision follows a nearly month-long suspension of the route.
Captain Haitham Misto, Chairman of the Jordanian Civil Aviation Regulatory Commission, confirmed that the necessary permits have been granted to Yemenia Airlines, allowing flights from Sana’a to Amman to resume on July 25.
The number of flights is expected to increase to around three per day to meet the high demand from travelers.
Flights between Sana’a and Amman were halted on June 19, with an average of six flights per week before the suspension.
Misto indicated that the service will initially see a high frequency of two to three flights daily until demand stabilizes.
The resumption of flights is crucial for many passengers who have been awaiting this development.
The primary reasons for travel from Sana’a to Amman include medical treatment and onward connections through Queen Alia International Airport to other destinations.
This move is anticipated to significantly ease travel difficulties for Yemeni passengers and provide much-needed connectivity between the two cities.
