It is an attractive paint scheme. I'd love to add a Royal Jordanian 787 to my 1:200 scale diecast metal collection.
Jordan to Detroit?? whodda thunk eh — really dig the ceiling design in this airport (something i'm starting pay attention more about airports) "just not the type of pizza i'm used to" 🤣'different but good' oh for fork's sake, were you a flight forker risk? the 9.5 yrs in service is really showing in the cabin but the air vents make up for it i guess. is that green filter the plane's window? ironically today being St Patrick's Day makes for an inadvertent nod. meal service looks good, and the bedding seems to have earned this product your 'ultimate luxury' title. your mentioned Tronna twice!
Such and interesting route you flew Patrick, I wish you could have shown some more landscapes of the Hashemite Kingdom, a country I would fancy to visit. And about the Pistachio, it is typical on the Arab cuisine. Nice one yet again Patrick…cheers
You could say through Palestine (the west bank) AND Israel.
They both can coexist next to each other. Bethlehem can perfectly be called Palestine, and Tel Aviv, ISRAEL.
i love this guy's content love from Nigeria
Another unsung airline getting their proper shoutout via Patrick! Interesting lounge layout at QAIA. Reached my oneworld Sapphire level w/ RJ 2 years ago without having set foot inside their aircraft. I've actually earned one or two upgrade coupons because of that, but they're probably expired now.
Fantastic view of Palestine! Unfortunately the war is causing unhumane havoc to Palestine. Hopefully after the war, youll be able to visit Palestine and experience the fantastic and ancient culture.
Excellent as always Patrick – I took RJ in 2019 from AMM to JFK and really enjoyed it.
Free Palestine 🇵🇸, love your vids, I support u
Interesting route choice Patrick
God bless Israel 🇮🇱Jai Shree Ram from India🇮🇳❤
I love that lounge in Amman – and you can get Jordanian wine, which is surprisingly good, especially when served by a charming and funny barmaid. I thought Royal Jordanian were great – routing Qatar-Amman-London – I particularly liked the monogrammed cutlery and crockery, and the trolley buffet service. Jordan is also a wonderful country and by far the most stable in the region. Well worth a visit.
Yes, and Jordan is actually beautiful, service is very good too as well as the food. And I did have the chance to fly Royal Jordanian and loved it.
Your videos are by far my favorite. I have learned a lot about the world and who flies where and when and who has owned or owns them. So fascinating. Thanks 😊🎉
The Pizza is manakesh if I am not mistaken, though they have cut it like a pizza. Ususally it is served whole.
Very poor that the windows were locked, specially on day flight
Patrick there is one reason why it's popular it has to do with the Palestinian population from the West Bank in Detroit area because they can simply fly to Aman Queen Alia airport from DTW then bus Aman to the West Bank. For the flight itself this will get tight security if Rep Tlaib decides to fly RJ DTW-AMN then bus AMN to the West Bank
33:02, I agree with you, it's similar to China airlines 1st and business class lounge, this time, the shower is free, however, you have to pay to use the towel and it's so annoying. Come on China airlines and Royal Jordanian, we want to use the shower and get towels for free inside the lounge. All other lounges in Asia, Oceania and Europe are free to use the shower and provide towel inside the lounge.
Did you sleep on the plane, if so, how many hours, you don't sleep on the plane, even though it's a daytime flight and is that your 1st time flying Royal Jordanian and how is it?
I cannot under this Airline who flies to Detroit why?????? 😮 how about a route to Australia 🇦🇺
Alright yall… this is a flight video. Literally not political whatsoever. Whatever stance you’ve got, that’s not what we are here for. We are simply here to look at an airline near the conflict region. Safe travels yall. Stay safe
Nice airport, nice lounge. 2-2-2 in business class is a no go for me. I only will go business class if the cabin is 1-2-1.
Patrick … I'm curious …. who pays for all of your air tickets????? Do you actually have a job????
Tomorrow night, I am flying my 1st flight in 2024 on United to Seattle via San Francisco for the 1st time and then rent a car to cross the border to Vancouver, Canada for the 1st time for less than 1 week vacation.
Hi Patrick
Thank you for another awesome flight report.
Surprised that you had to pay for Shower in a Lounge?…that's new to us..
Due to stability and safety, I will not fly specially to Amman to transit to another country.
From the DTW arrival, looks like the airport is very far from Detroit Downtown…
This is an eye opening report for me…
Thanks for another excellent review . I don't think I'll ever be in Jordan but Detroit really hit the jackpot with their airport while Cleveland is third rate
Thanks for the info + video!
Royal Jordanian,, we will be collecting headsets 45 mins before arrival American, we see you collecting headsets. 45 mins before arrival and raise you collecting headsets 90 mins before landing and shaming the 2 passengers that haven’t handed them in by PA multiple times.
Why didn’t you tell us you where in Jordan
Nailed it once again Patrick, your travels are envious but enjoyable to watch. Looking forward to the next one!
Very nice meal service. Kuddos for your nice review
That lack of window control is one reason we never have, and never will fly on the 787. The other reason… it's a Boeing, and until they stop collecting safety squawks from the FAA, NYSB, other Nation's safety agencies, customers, et al. If it's Boeing, We ain't going.
Thank you for sharing your nice travels.😊😊
787 beautiful
Arabic pizza is called manoosh one with zataar spices the other labneh cheese. They’re more a breakfast food.
The big 3 don’t fly to Detroit because it’s a family and friends route filling cheaper economy seats but not enough business or first seats to add profit. Another great video review. Many thanks.
nice report.there aren't many reviews of this airline
Saying "around Palestine" instead of around Palestine AND Israel was an odd choice of words concidering the fact that Israel controls the part of the coastline Royal Jordanian flies above, good video except for that
Love the content you should do the soon to be inaugurated air peace flight from Lagos to Gatwick operated by Norse
I detest when airlines lock the window control function. That’s a hard no from me. I won’t use RJ.
Great video on a "not your typical route" . Ever Forward Patrick with your videos.
nice review! I tried rj business class to detroit before, and to chicago, but there wasn’t the mattress service shown in your video. seems like its new, same with the mid flight snack menu. great video overall!
I Havent Experience Royal Jordanian.Great Video And Info
Great video!!! I see others triggered in the comments; more triggering is the 2-2-2 setup nowadays HAH!
It's as if you never left the middle east as Detroit looks like Dubai 28:28 LOL. Was this due to the quality of the light coming through the window, or did you add a filter to the camera? Great report btw.
