Jordan welcomes UK easing of travel advisory

Amman-Jordan has welcomed the UK’s decision to relax travel advice for most parts of the kingdom, saying the move reflects international confidence in the country’s security and stability.


The Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities said the updated guidance is expected to encourage more European visitors and support the tourism sector, a key pillar of Jordan’s economy.


The UK Embassy in Amman also welcomed the return of British tourists and business travelers, while advising visitors to check official travel guidance before their trips.


Jordan is home to major attractions including Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Dead Sea. Officials said tourism facilities across the country are fully prepared to receive visitors despite regional tensions that have affected travel across the Middle East.
