 Landed on Queen Alia
Internation Airport - AMMAN by PakistaniguyLeave a Comment

We were HAMMERED by demands for tips in the Amman airport. Of course, we were carrying 25 bags and equipment cases, so were prime targets for the racket created by the local porters (both in Amman and Kuwait).
Suggestion: Carry LOTS of small bills, choose the MINIMUM number of "helpers" (they come out of the woodwork) and REMEMBER FACES! You will be surrounded by uniformed men who will swear to you that they have stuck with your baggage from the conveyer belt and that you owe them for the work done. They may or may not have actually been there.
I exchanged enough US $ to tip $150 for the travel from Kuwait to Amman and at the end of the journey at the hotel found that I had spent it all and more in paying men with their hands out. It was an exhausting, confusing, chaotic experience that I would not like to re-experience. Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

 Queen Alia International
Airport by AMOQUE
At the airport, it is not very clear where to go. There are some desks to get a visa for Jordan, but I didn't need one (transit flight).
After 20 minutes of asking the right direction (almost noone spoke or understood English) to a very unfriendly staff, a nice staff member helped me out.
He took me to the right gate, true a "staff only" passage. After a couple of hours of waiting (the airport has a nice shopping area and some nice restaurants), I'd to pass the douane. As I past the detectiongate, it beeped. They took me apart and a woman examined me with a body(metal)detector. It kept beeping all the time.I knew, I had nothing illegal on me, but still I felt very unconfortable. It turned out to be the zipper of my pants. I could go.
On my way back I had an unpleasant experience again. As soon as I arrived from Bkk, they asked me, if I was on a transit flight to Amsterdam. I answered positive. They putted me in a line and told us to wait there. A staff member took my boarding pass and gave me a voucher wich said: "transit and flightnumber" (I did not notice immediately, that I did not have my boarding pass anymore). Before I knew it they putted me trough the douane and I was standing in Jordan (I now have a Jordan stamp in my passport).
They wanted to put me in an hotel, but I wanted to stay at the airport. Fortunately there was a very nice stewardess of the company I was flying with (Royal Jordanian Airlines). She took me to the right departure terminal. It's an area without shops, food or drinks. I had to wait there for four hours.
My flightnumber appeared on the sign eventually, I could go trough the douane (ousite Jordan) again. There I had to give the voucher wich said: "transit and flightnumber" At last I got my boarding pass back. I could go to the restaurant and shopping area.
I had an unpleasant experience here, but still if it saves me money, I would fly via Amman again. I know now, how everything works here. Leave a Comment Theme: AirplanePhone: +962 6 4451136

 Visa? A simple stamp in your
passport... by Djinn76
I don't know how to go from the airport to the city (a friend picked me up) but in the other direction, count between 15 and 25JD (depending how you negotiate) for a yellow taxi.
You will most probably need a visa to enter Jordan but you can buy it directly (and very easily) from the airport for 10JD.
They only accept cash (and Jordan Dinar) but you can change some JD directly at the airport ...
When leaving, there is a "departure tax" as well, I think it was 7 JD Leave a Comment Theme: Airplane

 Royal Jordanian Airlines by Blatherwick
An Airport Express bus runs between the airport and the upper end of the Abdali bus station. The service runs every half hour between 6 am and 10 pm for 1.5 JD. Three other buses go at midnight, 2 am, and 4 am. Leave a Comment
