Delta's new service to Jordan?

Question

Why??

Answer 1

It's part of the new open skies agreement.  The route may have been exclusively Royal Jordanian before.  Delta may see a market for operating that route.

.

The open skies agreement will allow Air France for example to operate flights within the U.S.  I believe this means if wants to fly into N.Y. and sees market for a continuation of that flight to St. Louis they can fly that route whereas before they could not.

.

Basically it removed a lot of restrictions that were put into place to protect some national airlies  If you care to read more about it go to.
