The Jordan Tourism Board (JTB) has updated their charter incentive scheme, offering tour operators potential subsidies of $80 (approx £59) per passenger if operating charter flights.

The subsidies, effective from 23 June 2025, offer financial rewards to tour operators that operate charter flights and package holidays to Jordan.
Under the updated system, charter operators will receive a cash payment for each passenger booked on a package that includes both flights and a minimum of three nights’ accommodation in Jordan.
The incentive amount increases with the length of stay, up to a maximum of $80 US dollars per person, giving tour operators even more reason to secure bookings to Jordan.
Jordan’s impressive tourist attractions, such as Petra, Wadi Rum, and the Dead Sea, make the country a brilliant destination for travellers interested in the history and culture of the Levant region.
The new charter incentive scheme enables tour operators offering charter flights the ability to benefit financially from this interest, as well as capitalise on healthy figures from earlier this year, showing a 20% increase in UK travellers to Jordan compared to Q1 of 2024.
The scheme applies only to charter operators that directly manage both flights and accommodation arrangements.
For tour operators to qualify for the subsidy, they must submit full documentation following each charter arrival, including a hotel rooming list with passenger names and check-in dates, an immigration-stamped passport manifest, and a general declaration from the airport authority confirming the flight operated as a charter.
Additionally, operators must also notify JTB of all flight details at least two weeks in advance, specify the local Jordanian DMC, and sign an official contract with JTB before beginning operations.
The updated incentive scheme is valid for all new contracts signed from 23 June 2025 onwards and does not apply to agreements made prior to that date.
Interested charter operators, having read the terms and conditions, should contact Stephanie Highland at SLC Representation for more information.
