‍AMMAN — An Emirates (EK) A350 has touched down at Queen Alia International Airport (AMN) for the first time, marking the start of its regular service on the second daily flight between Dubai International Airport (DXB) and Amman.

The deployment of the new aircraft has been moved up by two weeks from its original date of June 1, 2025. On May 19, EK 905 left Dubai at 22:10, and on May 20, it touched down in Amman at 00:15. This morning, EK 906 departed Amman at 0205 hours and arrived in Dubai at 06:05 hours.

The three-class EK A350 has 312 seats: 32 next-generation Business Class lie-flat seats in a 1-2-1 arrangement, 21 Premium Economy seats in a 2-3-2 arrangement, and 259 roomy Economy Class seats in a 3-3-3 arrangement.

Emirates and Jordan

Emirates has operated in Jordan since 1986. The UAE flag carrier also flies the Airbus A380 to Amman on EK903/904 in addition to the A350, with its wide corridors, quieter cabin, and higher ceilings.

The EK A350 will soon begin service to additional locations, such as Oslo, Istanbul, and Ho Chi Minh City. It also serves six additional short—and medium-range destinations, including Edinburgh, Kuwait, and Mumbai. The airline plans to use the A350 in 17 international cities by the end of this year.
