Information
and communication technologies (ICT);
- Information
communication is provided digitally via website and mobile technology, such as, notifications, emails,
social media posts, e-shots, SMS.
- As for offline
marketing, radio, TV and outdoor advertisements are utilized as communication tool.
Communication,
other than ICT;
- All information related to travel is available
in an electronic format either on RJ’s Website or mobile app, in compatibility with adaptive
technology.
- Public announcements in terminals are provided
in both audio and visual formats in all passenger service areas inside terminals.
- Public announcements are of a good quality, in
plain language, with clear enunciation and spoken slowly enough to be easily understood.
- our outstations are currently undergoing ATDPR
training to handle passengers with disabilities.
- Our cockpits and cabin crew undergo
training covering Air carries Access Act.
Procurement
of goods, services and facilities;
- Procurement ensures accessible air travel by
sourcing products, services, and technologies that meet accessibility standards for passengers with
disabilities. This could involve acquiring accessible Equipment and selecting assistive devices and
services.
Examples:
- Procurement involves acquiring assistive devices
and services that enhance the travel experience for passengers with disabilities. This could range from
boarding ramps and wheelchairs to communication tools for those with hearing impairments.
- Information and Communication Technology (ICT)
Accessibility: Ensuring that airline websites, apps, and kiosks are accessible to all passengers is
essential. Procurement teams collaborate with RJ IT and IT vendors to procure technologies that adhere to
accessibility guidelines, making it easier for travelers to book flights, check-in, and receive
information.
- Training and Awareness Programs: Procurement also
plays a role in sourcing training programs for airline and airport staff. These programs help employees
understand the needs of passengers with disabilities and provide appropriate assistance, creating a more
welcoming environment for all travelers.
- Accessible Ground Transportation: Procurement
teams work with transportation providers, such as shuttle services, to ensure that the vehicles they offer
are accessible to passengers with disabilities. This includes vehicles equipped with ramps, lifts, and
appropriate seating arrangements.
- Ground Handling Equipment: Procurement teams
source ground handling equipment, such as passenger lifts and boarding ramps, that enable passengers with
mobility challenges to embark and disembark from aircraft safely. This equipment needs to meet accessibility
standards and be readily available for use at airports.
- Assistance Services: Procurement involves
securing assistance services for passengers with disabilities. This includes wheelchairs and guiding
visually impaired passengers.
- Contracting Ground Handling Companies:
Procurement teams collaborate with ground handling companies to ensure that their services align with
accessibility requirements. This involves contracting companies that have a track record of providing
excellent service to passengers with disabilities and that have trained staff members who understand the
unique needs of these passengers.
In
summary, procurement is intricately involved in ensuring accessible air travel by sourcing and acquiring a range
of products and services that cater to passengers with disabilities

*medical certificates for fitness to
travel:
- A medical certificate is a written statement from
the passenger’s physician saying that the passenger is capable of completing the flight without
requiring extraordinary medical care during the flight.
- To be valid, a medical certificate under must be
dated within 10 days of the scheduled date of the passenger’s initial departing flight, and to be
approved by the Medical Department/advisor of Royal Jordanian.

with a medical certificate undergo additional medical review if there is a legitimate medical reason for
believing that there has been a significant adverse change in the passenger's condition since the issuance
of the medical certificate or that the certificate significantly understates the passenger's risk to the
health of other persons on the flight.
- If the results of this medical review demonstrate
that the passenger, notwithstanding the medical certificate, is likely to be unable to complete the flight
without requiring extraordinary medical assistance (e.g., the passenger has apparent significant difficulty
in breathing, appears to be in substantial pain, etc.) or would pose a direct threat to the health or safety
of other persons on the flight, an individualized assessment, based on reasonable judgment that relies on
current medical knowledge or on the best available objective evidence to ascertain the nature , duration and
severity of disease.

equipment to maintain their health during the flight.
- Who have undergone recent complicated
surgeries.
- Passenger with complicated fracture.

Transportation
At Royal
Jordanian we have a wide variety of
accessibility-related interactions with our customers throughout their journey. They review information on
our website, book reservations, engage at the check-in counter and the gate, get on and off one or more of
our aircraft, and travel with us or with other airlines.
We are
focused on working with manufacturers and all stakeholders in order safely and feasibly to make new aircraft
increasingly accessible, including to improve the safe transportation of mobility aids such as:
- Efficiency and comfort of mobility and guidance assistance through
airports.
- Facilitating advance, and safe boarding for customers with disabilities.
- Providing additional assistance with storing luggage in overhead bins.
- Safely transporting mobility aids.
- Standardizing acceptance process of service dogs, including owner-trained service
dogs.
Built environment
Royal Jordanian aims to constantly improve our built environment, which includes our aircrafts, the signage at our gates, and the means of checking in, checking bags, boarding, and disembarking to ensure accessibility for all of our customers. Royal Jordanian operates in airports with various resources and methods of planning for accessibility. Each airport layout is unique, which results in different accessibility barriers across the world.
A- Mobility Devices
• Royal Jordanian published this information in our website under Disability and Medical Assistance. For more information, click here.
• An internal policy is published and available in the royal Jordanian System platform for access to all commercial and ground services employees. These documents will be available to authorities whenever requested
• Installing wheelchair lifts at airports across our system, where lifts are needed due to airport infrastructure.
B- Actions to improve our environment
• Installing accessible kiosks. Royal Jordanian will be working to complete accessible kiosks installation across the network.
• Tracking metrics. Proactively tracking airport station metrics to determine how stations are succeeding in meeting accessibility needs, particularly when it comes to the handling of mobility devices.
• Aircraft accessibility. Supporting the continued study and development of safe and feasible aircraft accessibility features.
Provisions of the CTA accessibility-related regulations
Royal Jordanian is subject to regulations under subsection 170 (1) of the Canada Transportation Act. This includes the Accessible Transportation for Person with Disabilities Regulations (ATPDR), and the Air Transportation Regulations. The Accessibility Plan is not all encompassing, and we may be engaged in activities beyond those highlighted here.
Royal Jordanian is subject to Parts 1,2 and 3 of the Accessible Transportation for Persons with Disabilities Regulations.
