Year-to-date statistics revealed a 5.0% drop in QAIA passenger figures as opposed to the same period in 2023, totaling 2,638,151 PAX. Additionally, QAIA reported 22,422 ACM and 25,843 tons of cargo, depicting a 5.7% decline and an impressive 29.6% surge, respectively, against the same period the previous year.

Nevertheless, we remain steadfast in our goal to expand our airline and destination networks alongside our industry partners, while continuing to deliver excellent services. We will continue to strive to foster an airport environment that feels like home at Jordan’s prime gateway to the world,” commented Airport International Group CEO, Nicolas Deviller.
