Jordan – Jordan Airline Training & Simulation (JATS), a Royal Jordanian-owned simulator training center based at Queen Alia International Airport in Amman, has announced that its new Airbus A320ceo/neo full-flight simulator (FFS) has received approvals from the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) and Jordan's Civil Aviation Regulatory Commission (CARC).

The A320ceo/neo FFS, which was manufactured by CAE, arrived at JATS in August 2026.
The simulator is intended to support Royal Jordanian's transition toward Airbus A320neo-family aircraft, providing flight crew training infrastructure in Jordan for the airline's fleet modernization program.
JATS offers Airbus A320 initial type ratings, recurrent training, type rating renewals and Type Rating Instructor (TRI)/Synthetic Flight Instructor (SFI) training. Its initial type rating syllabus incorporates nine four-hour full-flight simulator sessions, equivalent to 36 hours, alongside theoretical and procedural instruction.
AFM previously reported in July 2026 that JATS had selected its first CAE-built Airbus A320 full-flight simulator to expand training capacity for Royal Jordanian.
The new simulator follows JATS' earlier investments in Airbus and Embraer training equipment, including a Thales-manufactured A320ceo FFS introduced in 2007 and a CAE-built Embraer E190-E2 Level D FFS delivered in September 2024.
JATS has identified the new device as supporting both A320ceo and A320neo configurations.
