Beyond Dawlish

Royal Jordanian operates out of Terminal 8 at JFK Airport. This modern terminal is also home to several other international airlines and is known for its efficient layout, updated facilities, and access to high-end lounges.

Terminal 8 is the largest terminal at JFK and was previously upgraded as part of a major renovation to improve the passenger experience. It’s well equipped to handle international flights and is managed in part by American Airlines, a Oneworld alliance partner of Royal Jordanian. This partnership allows for streamlined check-in, baggage handling, and smoother connections for travelers transferring between airlines.

Check-in and Departure Process

When departing from JFK on a Royal Jordanian flight, passengers should arrive at least three hours prior to their scheduled departure time. International flights require ample time for check-in, baggage drop, security checks, and immigration procedures.

Check-in counters for Royal Jordanian are located in Terminal 8’s main hall. Self-service kiosks may be available for travelers with electronic tickets, although traditional counters provide assistance with baggage and seating arrangements. The staff at the counter are typically bilingual and trained to assist international passengers with complex itineraries or travel documentation.

Once checked in, passengers proceed through TSA security screening. It’s advisable to have all documents (passport, boarding pass, visa if applicable) ready to ensure a quick process.
