Tips for 2½ hr Connections
Royal Jordanian's hub banks cluster in the early morning and late evening, so connections during these windows can mean crowded transit security lines.
Transfer desks are available near the arrival gates for passengers needing rebooking or boarding pass reissue.
Duty-free and food options are concentrated in the central departure hall, so allow time to walk there from remote gates.
If connecting between two international flights, keep your boarding pass and passport handy as you'll go through a transfer screening checkpoint.
Domestic Jordanian flights are limited, so most connections here are international-to-international via Royal Jordanian's network.

High risk
Tight connections are safer outside peak hours. Morning rush (6–9a), midday (11a–2p), and evening (4–8p) are highest risk.
Getting Between Concourses
All gates are within a single terminal building connected by walking concourses radiating from a central hall, so no train or shuttle is needed. Transfer passengers arriving from international flights typically pass through a transit security screening point before reaching departure gates, which can add time during peak banks.
