Starting May 10, 2026, Royal Jordanian will introduce a nonstop flight between Amman, Jordan and Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (DFW).
This new route marks a significant milestone for both the airline and the Dallas-Fort Worth region. It will be Royal Jordanian’s longest flight, covering 7,036 miles, and the first direct connection between North Texas and Amman.
The service will enhance global connectivity, boost tourism, and strengthen business ties between the two regions.
Flight Details and Schedule
Royal Jordanian will operate the route year-round, with four weekly flights on Sundays, Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Services will operate from Queen Alia International Airport (AMM).
The flights will use a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, which offers 270 seats. This includes 24 business class seats with lie-flat beds and 246 economy class seats with modern amenities.
The westbound flight, RJ291, departs Amman at 10:40 AM and arrives in Dallas-Fort Worth at 5:05 PM, with a duration of 14 hours and 25 minutes.
The eastbound flight, RJ292, leaves DFW at 10:55 PM and lands in Amman at 8:00 PM the next day, taking 13 hours and 5 minutes. The schedule is designed for convenience, offering seamless connections for travelers.
What to Expect Onboard
Royal Jordanian’s Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner offers a comfortable experience. Business class passengers enjoy spacious seats, gourmet meals, and priority services.
Economy class travelers benefit from ergonomic seats, in-flight entertainment, and WiFi. The airline’s warm Jordanian hospitality ensures a pleasant journey for all passengers.
Answering Growing Demand
The new service responds to growing demand for travel between North Texas and the Middle East. Dallas-Fort Worth is home to a vibrant Middle Eastern community, and this route will make it easier for residents to visit family and friends in Jordan and beyond.
Amman, a cultural and economic hub, serves as a gateway to the Middle East, with Royal Jordanian offering connections to destinations like Dubai, Beirut, and Baghdad.
For Texans, this opens up new opportunities to explore Jordan’s rich history, including sites like Petra and the Dead Sea.
For business travelers, the route strengthens ties between Texas and the Middle East. DFW is a major hub for American Airlines, a Oneworld alliance partner of Royal Jordanian.
This partnership ensures smooth connections for passengers traveling to other U.S. cities or international destinations. The nonstop service will save travelers time, eliminating layovers in Europe or other hubs.
Boosting DFW’s Global Reach
DFW Airport, already one of the busiest in the world, continues to expand its international network. The addition of Royal Jordanian’s service reinforces its position as a key global gateway.
In 2025, DFW served millions of passengers, and this route will further increase its traffic. The airport’s infrastructure, with its multiple terminals and efficient customs facilities, is well-equipped to handle the new service.
Local leaders have hailed the route as a win for the region’s economy, expecting it to drive tourism, trade, and investment.
Looking Ahead
The launch of Royal Jordanian’s Amman-Dallas route is a game-changer for travelers. It connects two dynamic regions, fostering cultural exchange and economic growth.
Whether you’re visiting Petra or attending business meetings in Dallas, this nonstop flight makes the journey easier.
