Royal Jordanian is evaluating ultra-long-haul routes using its new Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners, marking a strategic shift from regional focus. The airline, based in Amman, plans up to 12 long-haul routes, with the 787-9 enabling direct flights to distant markets like North America and beyond. Its 14,010 km range and 296-passenger capacity support premium traffic capture while reducing hub dependency. Two 787-9s are active, with four more on order, complementing seven 787-8s. The aircraft’s reverse-herringbone business class and fuel-efficient GEnx-1B engines enhance operational economics. Specific destinations and launch timelines remain unconfirmed, pending CEO finalization.
