Compensation & claim for Royal Jordanian: Madrid to Amman
Your payout case for the Royal Jordanian flight from Madrid to Amman has strong chances. Travel chaos is stressful for any traveller.
The legal coverage under CE 261/2004 applies by law when Royal Jordanian breaches its duties on the 3 652 km route from Madrid to Amman.
Why are you entitled to 600 €?
The European Regulation EC 261/2004 is very strict regarding air passenger rights. The amount of fixed compensation does not depend on the price of your ticket, but only on the flight distance.
Details of your right to compensation
- Departure airport: Madrid Barajas International Airport (MAD)
- Arrival airport: Queen Alia International Airport (AMM)
- Flight distance: 3 652 km (~4h34)
- Applicable compensation: 600 €
Since the landmark CJEU judgment, significant arrival delays are treated like a cancellation for the right to compensation. This significantly strengthened the reach of CE 261.
How to know if the flight Royal Jordanian Madrid - Amman is eligible?
To verify if your flight between Madrid and Amman is eligible for a payout, the key criterion is the arrival delay ({not the departure delay|measured at Queen Alia International Airport}). It must be over 3 hours.

The impact of a strike on your Royal Jordanian compensation
When industrial action disrupts your journey to Queen Alia International Airport, {the airline|Royal Jordanian} will often try to refuse the claim. However, a strike by its employees no longer constitutes, according to case law, an exempting circumstance.
