AMMAN — Queen Alia International Airport (QAIA) shattered last October’s record of travellers, marking a 9.2 per cent increase, to 654,791 travellers, according to a statement by the Airport International Group.

Aircraft movement also increased by 11.5 per cent, whereas the overall amount of cargo shipped via QAIA declined 7.9 per cent, compared to October 2017.

Since January 2018, QAIA welcomed more than 7.19 million travellers, up until the end of October; approximately 5.8 per cent more than it did during the same duration last year.

The increases come as some low-budget airlines have established new flight routes, via QAIA, to and from several European countries throughout the year.
