Royal Jordanian Cargo to boost US, Gulf trade flow

Royal Jordanian Cargo has strengthened its presence in the United States and the Middle East through a new partnership with ECS Group. Under a multi-year agreement, ECS Group’s U.S. arm, Globe Air Cargo, will manage cargo sales from Chicago and Detroit, linking U.S. exporters more closely with key Middle Eastern markets through Royal Jordanian’s hub in Amman.

The partnership is designed to support growing trade flows between North America and the Middle East. From its Amman hub, Royal Jordanian offers strong connectivity to major regional markets including Beirut, Cairo, Jeddah, Dubai, and Istanbul, as well as destinations across the Levant, North Africa, and Asia. ECS Group will focus on building cargo volumes on these routes by working closely with freight forwarders and exporters.

Globe Air Cargo will market the cargo capacity on Royal Jordanian’s Boeing 787-8 aircraft, providing shippers with reliable uplift and efficient transit times into the Middle East. The airline’s network makes Amman an important gateway for cargo moving into the region.

The agreement also gives customers access to ECS Group’s digital tools for booking, pricing, and shipment visibility. Both companies see the partnership as a practical move to strengthen Royal Jordanian’s cargo footprint, support regional trade, and create steady, long-term growth across U.S.–Middle East lanes.
