Royal Jordanian Flights
 

A very nice addition. Hopefully they will continue into the summer schedule.

Royal Jordanian in March 2024 schedules additional service to the UK, including flights to London Stansted and Manchester, based on schedule listing.

Amman – London Stansted 03MAR24 – 27MAR24 2 weekly A319/320
RJ113 AMM1015 – 1240STN 319 7
RJ113 AMM1030 – 1255STN 320 3

RJ114 STN1400 – 2155AMM 319 7
RJ114 STN1415 – 2210AMM 320 3

Terminal extension
 

Anyone know if there is any further information/images of STN's upcoming terminal extension programme, now that the airport has formally been granted planning permission? (other than the sketches that are featured on the STN website under the public consultation page). I also wonder if any satellite upgrades will be included?

Will watch the longevity of that one with interest….

With the current instability just over the Jordanian border I'm not sure summer 2024 is a good time to launch these routes. Time will tell.

Nothing has been made public. Staff should be shown further plans in due course. Management would like works to begin in December. But find this unlikely, unless its basic ground works.

Don't understand this unless 787s in for maintenance in March so loss of capacity on LHR & MAN routes?
They are already feeling the pinch with Wizzair on London route.

Doesn`t seem a problem with a320 to CDG, FRA,AMS so why should STN or MAN

Wasn't saying it was a issue for the aircraft, was this because 787 unavailable for LHR so no longer 287 seats from there. Time will tell if a reduction in equipment occurs at LHR during April.

GDS currently showing daily LHR - AMM flight still operating with 787,( of course things can change ) so looks like the STN - AMM is either extra capacity or has been put in to scrap it out against the Wizz LTN -AMM flights

Why should they downgrade the LHR flights, they have been planning a MAN flight for a couple of years now and STN is because no more slots available at LHR so any expansion has to be either LGW or STN, the same situation arises with Ethiopian who do MAN and LGW

The original post showed this as March 2024 only - if this is a permanent route then that is a different story.

Internal airport flight schedule system is showing 4 weekly flights through out March but no flights loaded for April. All flights are showing as A319’s

The Manchester route which was posted at same time is starting in March 1 weekly then April 2 weekly and then October 3 weekly A320 so I guess STN will work the same way

Fr new routes
 

Hi Ryanair to offer Dubrovnik and Sarajevo from next April 3 and 6 a week respectively.

Looks like RJ will be staying throughout the summer. Hopefully Stansted can retain this route and keep it going.

Royal Jordanian in last week’s schedule update extended schedule listing for its planned Amman – London Stansted route, scheduled from 03MAR24. Previously reported, the oneWorld member initially operates 2 weekly flights with Airbus A319 aircraft.

This has since been expanded to 3 weekly, with 4th weekly flight scheduled from 31MAR24. During Northern summer 2024 season, A320 aircraft operates this route, although certain dates will see A319 or A321 operating.

Following schedule is effective 16JUL24 – 31JUL24.

Have seen reports elsewhere that BA CEO Sean Doyle announced at a media event tonight that BA CityFlyer will return to Stansted, launching Florence, Ibiza and Nice.

Correct, credit to SeanM1997 on X

Direct consequence of the failure of City to secure extended Saturday operating hours one presumes
