Overnight layover guide. Sleeping facilities in the public zone or boarding area
Please note that some published services and schedules may be subject to change. If the idea is to spend the night in the public area, consider a plan B in case the stay inside the airport is only allowed for those who are about to board.
Spending the night at the airport
Amman Airport is open 24 hours a day, so you can stay overnight in the terminal if you have an early morning flight or if your flight is delayed. Bring a blanket and an inflatable pillow to make your experience more comfortable. It is also advisable to have an eye mask and earplugs to block out noise and light.
Where to rest: The Departures area offers better options, with some armrest-free seats on the second floor and quieter spots. However, note that there are no carpets anywhere, which is important if you need to lie on the floor. There are also some VIP lounges open 24 hours a day, but the maximum stay is 3 hours. A hotel is located about 5 minutes from the terminal, with more options available in the city.
Baggage: There are no left-luggage offices, so you must keep your bags with you until you can check in.
Eating and drinking: Some food outlets remain open overnight, mostly in the Departures area.
Restrooms: Showers are only available in the VIP lounges.
Wi-Fi: The service is free and unlimited.
Other services available around the clock: Banks, ATMs, currency exchange offices, convenience stores, pharmacies.
