Amman, June 27, 2018 - It states that travelers with powder-like substances over 350 grams placed in their carry-on bags may be subject to additional screening, and if the powder cannot be cleared by security officials, they will be prohibited from the cabin of the aircraft. This decision becomes effective on June 30, 2018.
This enhanced security measure applies to all flights coming from abroad to the US, including Royal Jordanian services flying from Queen Alia International Airport to RJ’s stations in New York, Chicago and Detroit, in addition to Montreal, as it is served by a combined flight with Detroit.
The directive does not however apply to flights from/within the United States.
Examples of powder-like substances are flour, sugar, ground coffee, spices, powdered milk and cosmetics among others, whereas customers traveling with baby formula, medically necessary powders and/or human remains will be exempt from screening.
Royal Jordanian thus encourages its passengers to place powder-like substances over 350 grams in their checked bags, to reduce the chance that aviation security authorities require the disposal of these items at the checkpoint and/or gate.
Royal Jordanian calls upon its passengers traveling to the United States to abide by these instructions to facilitate their travel.
