Traffic Growing QAIA’s airline network alongside valuable travel and tourism partners remains a priority. PASSENGER TRAFFIC (2010-2022)

QAIA serves as the hub for Royal Jordanian – the national carrier – which was responsible for 39.6% of the airline activity in 2022, followed by Ryan Air (5.44%), Jordan Aviation (5.14%), Turkish Airlines (4.7%), Emirates (4.2%), Qatar Airways (4.2%) and FlyNas (3.5%). In 2022, connecting traffic at QAIA represented 1.24 million passengers, i.e. 15.8% of total traffic. Infrastructure The QAIA premises – which extend across 1,900 hectares – include two parallel runways of 3,660 meters in length and 61 meters in width, with a separation of 1,446 m 2 , three Cat II Instrument Landing Systems (ILS) and Code 10 Fire Fighting & Recovery Systems services. After completion of the second phase of work, the airport grew to 25 active gates, 17 contact stands, 8 remote departures gates, 2 remote arrivals gates, 33 remote stands, 64 check-in counters and a retail area of 7,500 m 2 . To accommodate the terminal’s 170,000 m 2 area and maintain the short walking distances, 10 travellators, 24 escalators and 18 lifts were installed, allowing passengers to swiftly make their way across the terminal. In terms of IT infrastructure, AIG partnered with Amadeus to modernise QAIA systems in order to achieve maximum efficiency by integrating airport operations and passenger and baggage services into a single platform. This resulted in the launch of an agile, internet-enabled model that can be scaled up and/or down to match fluctuating passenger demand. Moreover, the next phase of the modernisation saw the implementation of Amadeus’ Altea Departure Control system, followed by self-service check-in and e-gates. Through the partnership, QAIA became one of the first airports in the region to operate cloud-based systems. Regulatory constraints QAIA is permitted to operate 24/7 without any mandated curfews nor any limitations on the number of aircraft movements per year. In line with the government’s National Transport Strategy, Airport International Group’s role since signing the agreement in 2007 has been to oversee key contributing factors, such as managing QAIA efficiently according to international standards; opening the new state-of-the-art terminal; investing in extensive marketing efforts to attract airlines; introducing incentives for newly-established routes; offering passengers premium quality services; and developing an open skies policy.
