(MENAFN) Royal Jordanian announced that it managed to return to profitability in 2012, with a USD1.6 million net income, compared with a USD81.46-million loss in the previous year, reported Arabian Business.
Chairman of the Kingdom’s national airline, Nasser Lozi, attributed the results to higher passenger traffic and less costs.

Meanwhile, 2012 revenue reached USD1.12 billion, representing a gain of 9 percent from the USD1.03 million recorded a year before.

It is worth noting that Royal Jordanian was established in 1963 and went public in 2007.
