Subject: Travel pool report #7 - Amman departure
March 23, 2013
Pool report #7
Marine One touched down at 3:06 p.m. on a windy but now partly sunny afternoon at the Amman airport. The 48-minute trip was uneventful, though not recommended for those with sensitive stomachs.
President Obama exited Marine One and was welcomed by King Abdullah II.
Ambassador Alia Bouran and Nasser Judeh, minister of foreign affairs, greeted Obama. And Secretary of State John Kerry was present as well, arriving at the airport with the king.
Obama and Abdullah chatted for a minute on the tarmac before the president jogged up the stairs, waved and disappeared onto the plane.
At 3:26 p.m., Air Force One is rolling. A planned refueling stop in Germany has been scrapped.
