RJ — second most punctual airline in the Middle East and Africa

Royal Jordanian (RJ) ranked second in terms of punctuality among Middle East and African airlines with 80.67 per cent on-time performance rate last year, according to OAG's 2018 Punctuality League study, released earlier this year.

The Punctuality League report is based on 57 million flight records; it uses full-year data from 2017 to rank the world’s airlines and airports best on-time performance (OTP).

OTP characterises flights that arrive within 15 minutes of their scheduled arrival/departure times.

In comments, RJ’s President/CEO Stefan Pichler said “Let me congratulate our operations team for this outstanding performance. Punctuality is a must for any world-class airline”.
