Jordan-Iraq, Politics, 11/24/2001

A report issued on Thursday said that the Jordanian airlines is intending to resume its flights to Baghdad by the beginning of this December after a cessation of more than two months.

The Iraqi weekly al-Zawraa said that talks were recently held between Iraq and Jordan to resume air flights to Baghdad and to run four flights per week to be increased to seven flights in case a turnout is observed and at a rate of one flight every day.

The paper stressed that the two sides agreed to reduce travel ticket prices less that previous value.

Worthy mentioning that Syrian, Egyptian and Jordanian airlines are organizing regular weekly flights to Iraq since one year after Iraq has re-opened Saddam's international airport before international navigation since more than one year.
