Website: www.jcaa.gov.jo/Airports/queen_alia.htm

The airport lies 35km (22 miles) south of Amman on the Desert Highway to Aqaba. There are two terminals. Terminal 1 is used almost exclusively by Royal Jordanian Airlines while all other carriers operate from terminal 2. Airport facilities are basic but include ATMs, a bureau de change, Wi-Fi Internet access, duty-free shopping, restaurants and car hire. Plans are underway to build a third terminal and when this is complete there should be a vast improvement to the airport including the provision of business facilities.

Airport Express
buses operate a round-the-clock service to Amman, from 0600- 2200 around every 30 minutes and every two hours at other times (journey time - 45 minutes). Airport taxis are plentiful. To avoid overcharging arrange a cab through the airport taxi office and get a slip showing the exact amount of the fare.
