AMMAN — The Royal Jordanian is pleased to announce the launch of seasonal flights to Paphos, starting June 13th, 2024. This new addition aims to enhance tourism opportunities for Jordanians, offering a fresh holiday destination alongside popular summer spots like Sharm El Sheikh, Antalya, Larnaca, Athens and Barcelona, according to the statement. 

Paphos will serve as an excellent complement to visits to Cyprus, providing a second destination within the island that is rich in cultural and historical attractions, the statement said.

As the flag carrier of Jordan, Royal Jordanian is dedicated to strengthening Jordan’s position as a prime tourist destination. The introduction of services to Paphos is expected to significantly boost Christian religious tourism, encouraging more visitors from Cyprus to explore Jordan’s historical and religious sites.

RJ Vice Chairman/CEO Samer Majali emphasised that the expansion into Paphos is aligned with Royal Jordanian’s strategic vision to enhance connectivity and develop a robust network across the Levant. The airline aims to reach 60 destinations, supported by a modern fleet of 40 new aircraft under its fleet modernisation plan, which will unfold over the coming years to meet growing travel demand, according to the statement.

Travelers interested in exploring Paphos this summer can book their flights via www.rj.com, the Royal Jordanian mobile app, by calling (+962 6 5100000), or through Royal Jordanian sales offices and travel agents worldwide.
