AMMAN — Jordan has gained two places in the Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Index (TTCI) 2017, ranking 75th compared to its previous 77th rank in 2015, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.

The index is part of the World Economic Forum (WEF), and seeks to measure “the set of factors and policies that enable the sustainable development of the travel and tourism sector, which in turn, contributes to the development and competitiveness of a country”.

The Jordan Strategy Forum said that the sub-index that most contributed to improving Jordan's rank was identifying the priorities of travel and tourism.

On the same index, Jordan ranked 8th among Arab countries following Egypt. TTCI covered 136 countries this year.
