RJ will operate two flights to Najaf weekly, on Mondays and Thursdays. The airline currently operates flights between Amman and the Iraqi cities of Baghdad, Erbil, Basra and Sulaymaniyah. Since the start of unrest in several Arab states in early 2011, the airline has suspended flights to several destinations in Syria, Iraq and Libya.
