Jordan Airports

Being in the aviation business I spend a large amount of time reading other aviation blogs and articles. Just the other day I came across an article regarding a certain company that will be building a specific terminal just for private jets at Aqaba International Airport in Jordan. This really should come as no surprise as some of the wealthiest individuals are from the Middle East so its only fitting that they cater to the use of private jets in the area. There are two major international airports serving the country of Jordan: Aqaba International Airport and Amman Marka International Airport where it is becoming a more common site to see the taxiways lined with not just commercial aircraft but private jets as well.
