Jordan's Minister of Tourism and Antiquities, Dr. Imad Hijazin, announced that low-cost carriers Wizz Air and Ryanair will gradually resume flights to Jordan, with Wizz Air launching a Budapest–Amman route on August 26 this month, operating two flights a week year-round.
Hijazin explained that the 2025–2026 winter season will see the operation of the largest network of low-cost flights linking Jordan with 18 European destinations, through major carriers such as Ryanair, Wizz Air and Eurowings, from Queen Alia International Airport, according to a post on the Facebook page of the Jordanian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities.
Wizz Air will also operate four direct routes to King Hussein International Airport in Aqaba, from Katowice and Warsaw in Poland, Bucharest in Romania and Sofia in Bulgaria, with two weekly flights for each destination, strengthening Aqaba's position as a destination for beach and winter tourism.
For his part, Director General of the Jordan Tourism Board, Dr. Abdul Razzaq Arabiyat, confirmed that the flights will start gradually from September 16 until the end of March 2026, with plans to extend them into the next summer season. The destinations include major European cities such as Milan, Paris, Rome, Madrid, Vienna, Prague and London, which will help increase the number of European visitors and support Jordan's tourism sector.
