Jordan Announces Partial Temporary Closure of Its Airspace

Jordan announced on Monday a partial and temporary closure of its airspace to all inbound, outbound, and transit flights, in light of the current regional developments.

In a statement, Captain Dhiaf Allah Al‑Farajat, President of the Board of Commissioners of the Jordanian Civil Aviation Regulatory Authority, clarified that the decision is part of a risk‑assessment process that complies with international standards.

He added that the measure will be applied daily, with the airspace closed from 18:00 (6 p.m.) until 09:00 (9 a.m.) the following day.

The decision takes effect this evening and will remain in force until further notice, to ensure the safety and security of civil aviation within Jordanian airspace.
