(MENAFN- Jordan Times) AMMAN - Chief Commissioner of the Civil Aviation Regulatory Commission (CARC) Dhaifallah Farajat on Tuesday met with UAE Ambassador to Jordan Sultan Al Shamsi to discuss prospects for expanding bilateral cooperation in air transport.

During a meeting at CARC headquarters, the two sides highlighted the advanced level of air traffic between the two countries, which accounts for around 14 per cent of total operations at Queen Alia International Airport (QAIA).

The UAE ranks second among destinations served by airlines operating to and from Jordan, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.
