Queen Alia Airport is thought to be the biggest airport in Jordan and it is divided into three terminals that work for both international and domestic flights as well as cargo. Queen Alia Airport is considered to be an international airport and its name can be traced back to the third wife of King Hussein of Jordan. It opened its gates in 1983.
Jordan has started to build an economic reputation and it has invested money in every type of means of transportation. At the time being, Queen Alia Airport is undergoing some changes and at the end of all refurbishments the airport will have a new terminal. Specialists say that at the end of 2014 all the necessary extensions to the new terminal will have been added. Jordan is a country full of beautiful traditions and one of its traditions is to make the guests feel like home. That is why Queen Alia Airport has two incredible, luxurious lounges for its passengers. One of the lounges offers access to the first class and business passengers while the other lounge welcomes everybody. Taking some time off at the lounges is a fine way to relax after a long flight.
When it comes to ground transportation you have several options. Queen Alia Airport has a taxiway so you can just choose a cab, tell the cab driver your destination and he will take you as quickly as possible to the desired location. Going by cab can be a wise choice if you don't want to waste a single moment waiting for another means of transportation. Jordan also decided to have a bus stop at the airport so you can wait at the bus station, if you aren't in a hurry and if you want to save some money. If you want to travel fast and with style you can car hire, you can ask the airport staff for more information about car hire companies and their phone number, the staff is friendly and helpful.
