What AMM to LCA looks like
The AMM to LCA sector, the carriers on it and the flying time, before anything is promised to anybody.
Amman AMM to Larnaca LCA is a short sector of 414 km by great circle, flown nonstop about once a day.
At the cruise speed this site models for 414 km, 720 km an hour, and thirty minutes of taxi at the two ends, the flight blocks at about 1h 07m.
Amman AMM is a mid sized airport in the network held here, 72 scheduled destinations and 131.4 departures a day. Larnaca LCA has 86 destinations and 120 departures a day.
Larnaca runs one hour behind of Amman in January and no time shift at all in July, because the two ends do not change their clocks together.
The pair sits between Europe and the Middle East, a corridor where the site already publishes 66 written lanes that go into customs and ground detail this page does not.
Who flies the sector, and how often
Average daily frequencies on AMM to LCA from the scheduled route statistics, both directions, with the operating carriers named.
| Direction | Flights a day | Flights a week | Operated by |
|---|---|---|---|
| AMM to LCA | 1.14 | 8 | Royal Jordanian |
| LCA to AMM | 1.14 | 8 | Royal Jordanian |
One carrier holds the sector, Royal Jordanian, so a cancellation has no second nonstop behind it and the connections below stop being theoretical.
Between them the two directions put about 16 departures a week on AMM to LCA, which is the number that decides whether a seat can be found today or on Thursday.
The clock from collection to signature
The same ground timings the route calculator starts from, applied to the 1h 07m block time on AMM to LCA. Change any of them in the tool further down and the total moves with them.
| Stage | Allowed | Elapsed |
|---|---|---|
| Collection and the run to AMM | 90 min | 1h 30m |
| At AMM before departure | 180 min | 4h 30m |
| AMM to LCA in the air, estimated | 67 min | 5h 37m |
| Formalities at LCA | 90 min | 7h 07m |
| Delivery run in Larnaca | 45 min | 7h 52m |
| Door to door | 472 min | 7h 52m |
On the desk standard ground timings, ninety minutes to collect and reach the airport, three hours at the airport before departure, ninety minutes of arrival formalities and a forty five minute delivery run, the door to door figure for AMM to LCA is 7h 52m.
A courier who leaves Amman at 09:00 local is on the ground in Larnaca at about 09:07 local and at the door by 11:22 the same day.
Working backwards from a six in the evening handover in Larnaca, the last useful departure from Amman is around 15:38 local.
When the nonstop does not work
Every airport that joins the two ends, ranked by when they land, among the ones whose weaker leg is dependable enough to plan on. Connection time is allowed for the size of the hub. 26 of them join AMM to LCA.
| Connecting at | AMM to hub, flights a day | Hub to LCA, flights a day | Track, km | Estimated, gate to gate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Beirut BEY | 6.57 | 3.71 | 445 | 2h 39m |
| Cairo CAI | 9.57 | 1.14 | 1,040 | 3h 47m |
| Athens ATH | 1.86 | 18.43 | 2,227 | 5h 05m |
| Manama BAH | 2.86 | 0.57 | 3,431 | 6h 22m |
| Doha DOH | 5.57 | 1.57 | 3,712 | 6h 59m |
| Vienna VIE | 0.57 | 3 | 4,484 | 7h 59m |
One nonstop a day means one chance a day, so the connections below are what a consignment that arrives at AMM in the afternoon actually flies on.
26 airports connect the two ends on the scheduled network held here. The quickest of the dependable ones is Beirut BEY, where the weaker of the two legs still runs 3.7 times a day.
Through BEY the routing covers 445 km against the 414 km nonstop track and takes about 2h 39m in the air and on the ground at the hub, allowing 60 minutes to connect at an airport of that size.
That is only 1h 32m more than the nonstop, which is close enough that a connection is worth taking when the nonstop is full or badly timed.
Behind it, Cairo CAI at 3h 47m and Athens ATH at 5h 05m hold the same connection, so a booking has three hubs to try before it has to wait for the nonstop.
The two ends are only 414 km apart in a straight line. Allowing a road track a quarter longer than that and eighty kilometres an hour, a car covers it in about 6h 28m, so a courier who misses the flight drives rather than connects, and on a short deadline the road is often the plan from the start.
If nothing suitable leaves Amman, Tel Aviv TLV is 109 km away by great circle and carries 110 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.
If nothing suitable leaves Larnaca, Paphos PFO is 105 km away by great circle and carries 52 scheduled destinations of its own, which is usually a shorter road transfer than a lost day.

Where this came from, and where to look next
- Carriers and frequencies: AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics, retrieved 2026-09-07. Average daily flights, not a timetable.
- Distances: great circle from published coordinates. They read short against a flown track, which is why the block time above applies a factor to them.
- Block and connection times: the same model the route calculator lower down this page runs, at the same rounding.
- Restrictions: the airport notes file, checked 2026-09-07.
- Industrial sites: public company information. Nothing here says or implies that any company named is a customer of any courier operator.
Who publishes this. OnBoard Courier is a placement desk in Dubai. An assignment is carried out by a vetted partner operator, with the desk as the single point of contact from the quote to the signature. This page exists because our own dispatchers need the answer for AMM to LCA in the twenty minutes before a promise is made, and a reference only one operator can read is not a reference. Free to read, quote and cite. Found an error? Tell us and we will correct it.
If you need something moved rather than looked up, the desk prices a hand carry in fifteen minutes.
