Jumeirah Mosque “Home of the Founding Father – Abu Dhabi City Tour” 09:00 – 16:00 Tour - From Muscat we drive towards Quariyat and then along the coast towards Sur Our first stop is at the Bimmah sinkhole, here you can sit with your feet in the water and have the little fish eat away at all those nasty bits. Not for the Ticklish! We have time to swim and jump of the rocks on the other side Further along the coast just before the quaint village of Tiwi is Wadi Shab. This is still a very beautiful Wadi but it was devastated when a cyclone called Gonu hit in 2007 and its beauty was not enhanced by the construction of a road bridge across the entrance. It is about an hour’s walk to the Swimming Pools but be sure to have some decent trekking shoes in fact two pairs of shoes are advisable one for trekking and the other for swimming and a bit of rock climbing. Bring some water (particularly in summer) and do not bring any valuables unless you have a waterproof case 17:00 – 19:00 Sunset Dhow Cruise - leave the Marina Bandar al Rowdha and cruise along the coast taking in the views of Muscat Harbour the sultan’s Palace and the Forts of Al Jalali and Al Mirani.

Wood ordan has long recognized the importance of aviation as a gateway to the rest of the world. J Although the kingdom’s national airline, Royal Jordanian, serves a region dominated by air carrier giants, during the leadership of King Abdullah II it has recently undergone a remarkable transformation since it was established nearly 50 years ago. A forward-looking business strategy has transformed the formerly government- owned carrier into a modern, profitable, investor-owned company. Along the way, Royal Jordanian has scored a succession of firsts for a Middle East airline: • First government-owned airline to be listed on a stock exchange • First airline to become a member of a major airline alliance • First to order the Boeing 787 Dreamliner The late King Hussein established the airline by royal decree in 1963, stating, “I want PHOTO: Jordan’s late King Hussein, who established Royal Jordanian in 1963, was our national carrier to be our ambassador of good will around the world and to be a a pilot who maintained a warm relationship bridge across which we exchange culture, civilization, trade, technology, friendship with Boeing.

  • Aviation Rankings' Misjudgment: Inspiration of Egypt Air and Cairo International Airport Cases
    Journal of the Faculty of Tourism and Hotels-University of Sadat City, Vol. 4, Issue (2/1), December, 2020 Aviation Rankings' Misjudgment: Inspiration of Egypt Air and Cairo International Airport Cases 1Farouk Abdelnabi Hassanein Attaalla 1Faculty of Tourism and Hotels, Fayoum University Abstract This study aims to make a comprehensive assessment of the three most popular aviation rankings; Skytrax, AirHelp and TripAdvisor from a critical perspective supported by a global field study conducted in the same methodology as these three rankings have been done. This study is based on the descriptive statistics to analyze field data gathered about EgyptAir and other airlines, Cairo International Airport and other airports and comparing these results with what is published in these three rankings in 2018. The current study reveals that the results of these three global rankings are characterized by shortcomings and lack of value and unfairness. Finally, the study suggests a model for fairness and equity in the rankings of airlines and airports. Keywords: Air Rankings, Egypt Air, Cairo International Airport, Equity. 1- Introduction Through scanning the international airlines and airports rankings for the recent five years from 2013 to 2018, it is found that no understandable and embarrassing absence for Egypt Air (MS) and Cairo International Airport (CAI). However, Arabic airlines and Airports such as Qatar Airways, Emirates Airways, Oman Air, Etihad Airways, Saudia Airlines, Royal Jordanian and Air Maroc, Hamad International Airport and Queen Alia International Airport have occupied different ranks through these years. Their ranks may be one of the top 10 airline and airport positions, while others occupy one of the top 100 airlines and airports in the world.
