Amman, Sep. 9 (Petra) - Royal Jordanian airlines said Thursday that Flight RJ263, en route from Amman to Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, was redirected for an unscheduled landing at London's Heathrow Airport.
This decisive action was taken to prioritize the wellbeing of an American traveler of Arab descent onboard.
