![Queen Alia International Airport (AMM)](https://image.arrivalguides.com/398x193/01/1456fcfa5b13a0121619669b2f159d90.jpg)
The Queen Alia International Airport is Jordan's primary international air hub. Passengers can take the Airport Express Bus connecting the airport to Tabarbour Bus Station via the Seventh Circle. These busses run every half hour from 6am to 6pm and every hour from 6pm to midnight; journey time is normally somewhere between 45 and 60 minutes.
Taxis operate on a 24/7 basis and may be easily hired at the airport. Fares are fixed and current prices displayed at the taxi park. Car hire is also available at the airport.

Passport / Visa
Nationals of most countries are eligible for a single-entry visa upon arrival. The visa process is normally quick and uncomplicated, with no paperwork involved. The upon-arrival visas are not issued at King Hussein Bridge or Wadi Araba land border crossing points. Having Israeli border crossing stamps can possibly complicate coming into or leaving Jordan. The Jordan Pass is recognised universally, and entitles the holder to a waiving of the visa fee.
For multiple-entry visas, travellers will need to apply in advance prior to travel. Consult the link below to find out whether a visa is required for you.

Best Time to Visit
The summer months of July and August tend to get quite hot and heavy, so if avoiding extreme heat is something you're interested in, we recommend planning your visit for some time during the spring (March–May) or autumn (October–November).

Public Transport
The public transportation system of Amman comprises busses, mini-busses, and service taxis. The service taxis are the most efficient means of transportation of the three; they stick to fixed routes (and are therefore numbered) and only run within the city. There is a fixed ride price regardless of journey duration. There often aren't clear indications of stops, but these tend to be located at the bottoms of hills. Lines may form during rush hour.

Taxi
There are plenty of yellow cabs circulating around the city. You can easily flag them down, and they are generally inexpensive. That said, it is important that you take note of the cab meter being reset and functioning when you get in. There have been reports of drivers trying to avoid turning the meter on for reasons of heavy traffic or bad weather, so do insist the meter be used regardless of any possible circumstance.
Uber is widely used in Amman, and so is its Middle Eastern counterpart Careem.

Electricity
Jordan uses a mix of socket types (both two- and three-pin plugs). The standard voltage is 230V and the frequency is 50Hz, but actual numbers are rather inconsistent. Bringing a power plug adaptor and voltage converter is recommended.
