The US Embassy is issuing a critical emergency alert: there is a credible, specific threat to Aqaba International Airport and the Port of Aqaba. An emergency evacuation is underway. If you are in or planning to travel to the Aqaba area, leave immediately and proceed to a secure location away from the airport and port. Commercial flights may be suspended without notice. Avoid Aqaba entirely; if you are in Jordan and wish to depart, use alternative routes (Amman airport). Keep travel documents and charged phone ready, stay in constant contact with the Embassy, and monitor official alerts continuously.

Amman's Queen Alia International Airport (AMM) is affected by regional airspace avoidance orders amid the Middle East escalation and fresh Iranian strikes across the region, with airlines rerouting or suspending some flights. Expect delays, diversions, and possible cancellations. Reconfirm your flight directly with the airline before traveling, keep bookings flexible, and monitor official airline and government advisories closely.
