Hey everyone and welcome to a quick video on Royal Jordanian’s A320 to Dubai.
This is a highly popular route with up to 8 daily flights between RJ, flydubai and Emirates.
I’ve been wanting to try Royal Jordanian for quite a long time but there always was a reason not to.
This time I found a fare for $150 from Beirut to Dubai via Amman, so why not?
This flight departs at 23:30 at night so no views today.. I was initially not expecting much but to my amazement I had some of the nicest crews of 2023 and also one of the emptiest flights with 20 passengers!
I liked this experience so much that I will most definitely fly with them again in the near future as it’s quality for a good price.
If you’re on your way to become a Oneworld frequent flier Royal Jordanian might actually be one of the best ways to earn some points as I’ve seen very competitive fares with them.
Enjoy!
Today we are showcasing you the following flight:
From: Amman Queen Alia International Airport, the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
To: Dubai International Airport, Dubai, the United Arab Emirates
Flight Number: RJ 612
Aircraft Type: Airbus A320-200
Registration: JY-AYU
Flight Time: 02:41
Don’t forget to like and subscribe if you enjoyed our video!
Feel free to leave a comment with your opinion and feedback.
Have a nice one!
You can also leave a Super Like as a tip for my work. I’ll invest it all on future trips.

Flew Royal Jordanian from JFK on their 787 (one of the best looking planes in their livery imo) great service and was stuffed with great food. Very underrated airline. I wonder why the Dubai and Abu Dhabi flights at night are always so empty.

@TheLayoverAviation 8 ай бұрын

The timings are quite odd and I don’t think it gets a lot of feeder flights at that time, perhaps that is the reason.. But it returns both from AUH and DXB at 7am to AMM and that one is always full!

They’re underrated indeed.I was going to fly them during covid from Chicago to Amman on the B787 but at check in I saw loooong lines with dozens of screaming children and adults not wearing masks. The Air France line was empty and I asked them, is your flight full? No. So I rebooked myself on an empty Air France and cancelled RJ 😂 But I’ll have to try them soon!

Used to fly RJ a lot between Kuwait and London in the early 80s. Back then it was known as Alia Royal Jordanian. Fares out of Kuwait were really low. All airlines did dodgy date change stickers on the old paper-based tickets to make it look like you qualified for a low fare special ticket. Remember the AMM/LHR sector made a stop at Orly. And some of the AMM/KWI sectors were operated by Boeing 727s. Also remember the very obvious Sky Marshalls standing at the door and frisking passengers. Good old days! Flying"s not the same anymore!

You have notes about the V2500 idle thrust and long range fuel savings , this engine has Rolls Royce as a partner , British found that mixing hot engine turbine air with cold bypass air stream from engine fan before thrust air expands out to the atmosphere would affect positively engine performance in terms of initial thrust which would translate into a faster initial acceleration of the aircraft , that explains the exhaust area cascade that you see on Rolls engines in contrast to other engines , however since the aft cascade carries its own weight , this fuel saving from higher aircraft accelerations can be realized on longer trips , that is you need longer sectors to have fuel saved offset weight of cascade installed to realize this effect , cheers .
