Advanced Boarding Pass In Jordan
A recent, complimentary service to facilitate check-in procedures for Royal Jordanian passengers departing from Jordan. Avoids airport queues!

1- At certain sales offices in Jordan, you can pay your airport departure tax and guarantee your seat assignment, within 24 hours before scheduled RJ flight departure time.  

2- Once you obtain your advance boarding pass (ABP), it means you will definitely occupy that seat on that flight. Should you later be unable to make the flight, you  must  notify the Royal  Jordanian  issuing  office  within  6  hours  before  flight  departure  time, in order to process the flight coupon and ticket for re-use at a later date.
