Royal Jordanian Airlines announced a remarkable financial and operational performance for 2025 during its annual General Assembly meetings held on 20 April 2026. The airline reported a net profit of JOD 21.5 million, a significant improvement from a net loss of JOD 3.5 million in 2024, driven by an 11% increase in operating revenues to JOD 829 million.
The meetings, chaired by Samer Majali, Vice Chairman and CEO (Designated), highlighted the success of the airline's modernisation and expansion strategy. Majali noted that the airline carried 4.4 million passengers in 2025, an 18% increase, and achieved a load factor of 81%, the highest in its history. This performance positioned Royal Jordanian among the top five airlines globally for punctuality.
The airline's fleet modernisation saw the introduction of 19 new aircraft, including Airbus A320neo and Embraer E2 models, with plans to complete the fleet upgrade by the end of 2026. This includes the addition of Boeing 787-9 and Airbus A321neo aircraft, expanding the fleet to approximately 40 aircraft.
Royal Jordanian also expanded its network, launching routes to destinations such as Washington, Mumbai, and Casablanca, with plans to add Hamburg, Munich, and Vienna in 2026. The airline increased its stake in the Jordan Flight Catering Company to 51% and maintained significant holdings in other aviation-related businesses.
Looking ahead, Majali acknowledged challenges in Q1 2026 due to regional tensions and rising fuel costs but emphasised the airline's commitment to maintaining operations and supporting related sectors
