Amman, May 24 (Petra) – Royal Jordanian (RJ) ranked first among airlines in the Middle East and Africa for on-time performance in April, according to the monthly report issued by CIRIUM, the global aviation data analytics company.

The report showed that RJ achieved an on-time performance rate of 92.44%, placing it at the top of regional airlines in one of the aviation industry's most significant operational performance indicators.

RJ Vice Chairman and CEO Samer Majali said the achievement adds to the company's accomplishments and reinforces its position among the leading airlines in punctuality and operational efficiency.

Majali said that RJ's performance figures rival major global carriers. He said the ranking reflects the strength and efficiency of the airline's operational system and its ability to sustain high performance levels despite recent operational challenges and exceptional regional circumstances, including geopolitical tensions and the repercussions of war in the region.

He added that the airline maintained operational continuity and efficient flight operations by adhering to international best practices and implementing flexible operational plans, helping preserve punctuality and enhance reliability across its network.

Majali highlighted the modernisation of Royal Jordanian's fleet, particularly with the addition of new Boeing, Airbus and Embraer aircraft equipped with advanced technical specifications and operational advantages that support the airline's regional and international operations.

The ranking is based on the global on-time performance standard, which measures flights arriving within 15 minutes of their scheduled arrival time.
