With the closure of the three destinations, the RJ routes will count 51.

He added that shutting down the three destinations raises the number of destinations that RJ has stopped this year to eight.
He said that RJ suspended its flights to Alexandria, Colombo, Milan and Accra last April and May.
He also said that RJ continually studies the opportunities for new routes. There are a number of regional markets that RJ is watching closely.
Regarding its fleet, Lozi said that the airline is awaiting the arrival of the Boeing 787s which will start joining the fleet in August this year.
Lozi also said that the airline had to suspend operations to seven stations in the Middle East and North Africa due to security reasons in the region; they are: Damascus and Aleppo since more than two years, in addition to Tripoli, Benghazi, Misrata, Mosul and Tel Aviv.
He stressed that Royal Jordanian suffered big losses in 2012 and 2013, as a result of suspending service to Damascus and Aleppo and also changing the route of its operations between Amman and Beirut.
The airline also witnessed losses in the past period of 2014 because of the uncontrolled suspension of these destinations.
