Has anyone flown Royal Jordanian?

I am pricing out flights to/from Greece and there is an option to fly there via Royal Jordanian that would be a decent price.

The flight is 11:30 am - 12:30 pm +1 with a 3 hr and 25 min layover in AMM.

I have zero experience with that airline and don't know anyone who has flown with them either, so any feedback is appreciated.

I have flown with them twice: once business and once coach. They were perfectly fine for my flights.

I know someone who worked in Jordan for years, but lived half the year in the UK (our summer).

She always well preferred flying RJ over the other carriers from the UK, even though it was usually a significantly higher price. In all respects she thought the RJ experience was just well worth the extra cost.

I'm not sure where she is currently- she is a digital nomad due to circumstances in the Middle East- so I've lost track of her.

No, I have not, but my mate Dennis has. Here are a couple of videos on his channel.

First up Dennis and Jeb Brooks on Royal Jordanian, followed by them hamming it up at Petra. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fa66b1M7i6Q

Second Dennis with his mum on a flight from Amman to Amsterdam with comments at the end on the assessment by Dennis. https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?q=royal%20jaordainian%20bunnick%20youtube&mid=D61FC833847CDC5F28C1D61FC833847CDC5F28C1&ajaxhist=0

Both have great channels with lots of good stuff on airlines. Jeb Brooks has Greenergrass.com and often does trips with his wife, Suzanne. Alert both tend to fly business class, though not always. Both give honest and fun reviews.

My wife and I are off to Paris tonight, Saturday for us, on China Eastern via Shanghai, business. Long-haul is only option for us. Dennis did a review of this airline in 2019, and so my children have decided that we should try it as an alternative to the Gulf carriers, south Asian airlines, and the Red Roo. They will join us in a week in Rome.

Hope the reviews are of help.
