None of the airfield mandates are difficult to follow, parking is usually available with operational hours stretching around the clock. PPR and slot filing require the trip schedule and airplane information. Overflying permits are approved only if the request is sent at least 24 hours before the scheduled time of flight. For landing permits, the timeframe is shortened to 48 hours before the trip schedule.
The country has its own set of COVID requirements for entry. All non-citizens coming inside the country are required to visit the Jordanian government portal before departing. Over there, a QR code is secured that needs to be validated by staff before boarding and arriving in Jordan. Passengers who are on connecting flights are exempted, together with Jordanian nationals. Additionally, foreigners have to show documents proving their health insurance. Only diplomats with a valid QR code and patients traveling to Jordan for medical care are relieved of this check.
