UAE's Air Arabia plans Jordanian airline

By Jason Benham

DUBAI, June 7 (Reuters) - UAE-based budget airline Air Arabia said on Monday it signed an agreement to launch Jordan's first low-cost carrier and announced its fourth regional hub, as the airline continues its expansion plans.
The Arab world's largest listed airline signed a joint venture agreement with Jordanian Tantash Group to launch Air Arabia Jordan which will be based in the country's capital Amman, it said in a statement.
The new low-cost carrier will serve destinations across Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.
"We are confident of the long-term growth opportunities for the first low-cost carrier in the Kingdom," Adel Ali, Air Arabia's chief executive said.
Air Arabia, set up in 2003 in Sharjah in the UAE, also has a hub in Morocco and recently launched operations in its third hub in Egypt. Its business is under pressure from rivals including Kuwait's Jazeera Airways and Dubai-owned FlyDubai.
Tantash Group, based in Amman, is an investment company with interests in travel and tourism, real estate, financial services and industrial investment.

Speriamo che i giordani siano meno protezionisti degli egiziani e concedano gli slot ad AMM
 
Sarà contenta Royal Jordanian che si troverà un nuovo coinquilino al nuovo Queen Alia Int'l.
 
questi fra poco aprono anche Air Arabia Milano...
Cmq ben venga la concorrenza!
 
Sapete se Air Arabia ha un codice di volo differente per ogni paese?
 
AeroDream Design ha detto:
Ad Amman ci sono due apt, Amman Queen Alia (AMM) e Amman Marka (ADJ), quest'ultimo è passato in secondo piano dopo l'apertura di AMM nel 1983.

L'unica destinazione di RJ da ADJ è proprio Aqaba se non ricordo male.

Che senso ha tenere questa unica rotta nel vecchio aeroporto rendendo poi impossibile i transiti?

L'aeroporto è praticamente in centro, un po' come Linate. E' comodissimo per fare il weekend ad Aqaba partendo da Amman (in auto/bus sono più di cinque ore).
o.t.: Io son decollato da li nel 2005, davvero molto bello :cool:
 
Ho detto io che Air Arabia sta diventando la RYANAIR del nord Africa :D :D :D
 
In arrivo Air Arabia Jordan
Firmata l'intesa per la prima low cost basata ad Amman

Air Arabia guarda alla Giordania come suo quarto hub. A questo scopo, è stata siglata una joint venture tra il vettore e il Tantash Group, una società di investimento basata ad Amman. Nascerà così Air Arabia Jordan, la prima low cost del regno hashemita, con l'obiettivo di voli diretti in Europa, Medio Oriente e Nord Africa. La compagnia ha di recente lanciato anche Air Arabia Egypt.

Stanno correndo tanto forse troppo, speriamo non facciano il botto.
 
Potrebbero abbreviarla in Air Jordan, che ve ne pare? :D
Ah no, poi la Nike protesterebbe...
 
Dopo quasi 5 anni.....
