General description Leveraging the strategic geographic location and thriving touristic potential of Jordan – complemented by a growing network of direct flight links to numerous destinations worldwide – Queen Alia International Airport (QAIA) has steadily emerged as a premier regional centre for leisure and business travel. Established in 1983 to serve as Jordan’s main airport, QAIA – which is ISO-certified – provides air cargo, business and other aviation support services, while systematically investing in upgrading technologies and work practices to enhance its customer service levels and operational performance. As a testament to its steadfast commitment to excellence, the multi-award-winning QAIA was granted the title of “Best Airport by Size and Region: Middle East” for airports serving 5 to 15 million passengers for the eighth time in its history as per the Airports Council International (ACI) 2023 Airport Service quality (ASQ) survey. In 2024, QAIA was awarded 4 stars in its first Skytrax ranking. Meanwhile, QAIA has been dedicated to conserving the environment, becoming in 2022 the first airport in the Middle East and the second in Asia-Pacific to achieve level 4+ (Transition) from the Airport Carbon Accreditation programme (ACA), which was renewed until 2025. In 2022, QAIA also became the first airport in the Middle East to obtain level 3 of the Airport Customer Experience Accreditation, awarded by the ACI and renewed until 2025, which recognises its commitment to improving the services offered and customer satisfaction. According to a study carried out for the International Air Transport Association (IATA), QAIA and associated companies accounted for a total of 238,000 jobs in 2019. Airport International Group (AIG), the concession holder for QAIA, employs more than 440 professionals – the vast

majority of whom are Jordanian nationals – committed to ensuring excellent service quality, optimal passenger satisfaction and a unique travel experience on par with top global industry standards. On 10 May 2024, the global restructuring of AIG's concession and financing came into effect.
