The second phase of repatriating Jordanian students and those stranded abroad will start Friday, May 15, 2020, the Director of the coronavirus Crisis Cell, Brig. Gen. Mazen Farrayah, said on Saturday evening, May 9.

Flight bookings will be available as of 10:00 am on Sunday, May 10, as follows:

1- May 15 flights (Cairo, Jeddah, Dubai, Cairo, London)
2- May 16 flights (Riyadh, Abu Dhabi, Kuala Lumpur, Istanbul, Paris, Chicago)
3- May 17 flights (Riyadh, Dubai, Larnaca, Almaty/Kazakhstan, Chicago)

Farrayah stated that more flights from the Gulf countries will be added to this phase, noting that other flights will be scheduled for those who fail to book on the aforementioned flights as seats are limited.

Booking will be readily available on Safelyhome.RJ.COM, as those wishing to return to the Kingdom will be required to enter their national ID numbers and choose the country in which they are coming back from, he said.

Farrayah warned that incomplete or inaccurate information on Safelyhome.GOV.jO will render bookings invalid, as they will not be accepted.

He said that Jordanians abroad, in countries unmentioned in this phase, will be allowed to book flights provided they cover the cost of transport to the airports, in which flight will take off, adding that Safelyhome.gov.jo will soon be available to take applications for those who had failed to register.
