This is the lounge in Dubai nothing fancy but it's huge, and they offer a free shoe shiner, and I got a good message by an Indian guy, who asked me in middle if I was Muslim or Christian, so then I knew I was safe to continue to Amman.

Now in Amman you need a Visa so you can get a Visa by paying 40 Jordanian Dollars and it goes together with the passport control, once we got our luggage we took a Taxi to the Israeli Border. And here are some of the views from Jordan.

On the way to the border, it takes about an hour from the airport till the border.

This cost about $140 it was very helpful from reaching the border till passing the Israeli Border you get much better service, you have a car transferring you over the border instead of a bus full of people. I highly recommend this service.

From Israeli border till Jerusalem is also about an hour.

Plus, it gets you through the long queues and security checks, which can save you literally a couple of hours

+1 I actually paid for it with my amex platinum ready to dispute the charge if it would be some small thing, but it was worth every penny.
