King Abdullah II bin Al-Hussein has ruled Jordan since 1999, succeeding his father King Hussein. A former military officer educated at Sandhurst, Oxford, and Georgetown, he has modernised Jordan's armed forces and maintained the kingdom's strategic regional role. The Jordanian royal fleet previously included an Airbus A340-600 Prestige ($260M) which was sold during the Arab Spring to avoid perceptions of excess. Today, the fleet includes an Airbus A318-112 Elite (purchased ~$50M in 2009) seating 8 in VIP configuration, and a Gulfstream G650ER (VQ-BNZ) seen at the Allen & Company conference in Idaho. Queen Alia International Airport (OJAI) in Amman serves as the royal base. King Abdullah frequently travels to Washington D.C. (KADW/Andrews AFB) for diplomatic meetings, London, UN General Assembly in New York, Davos, and regional summits in the Gulf.
Note · Celebplanes tracks King Abdullah II's registered aircraft — not King Abdullah II personally. ADS-B data shows when and where the plane moved; who was aboard any given flight is unknown.
