JSTA, the Jordan Society of Tourist and Travel Agents, was founded early in 1960 in Jerusalem through the efforts of the industry pioneers at that time.   It now forms the only association of travel agents in the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan.  It is currently located in Amman.   It is a recognized entity both internally and externally  due to the efforts and cooperation of its loyal members.

JSTA members are travel agents in Jordan.  The society represents about 350  travel agencies with approximately 60 branch offices employing about 3500 people.   They handle 70-80% of the nation's local and international airline bookings, hotels reservations, car rentals, package tours, visas, meet and assist formalities, and seminars.

JSTA members enjoy resources beyond the capacity of any single travel agency in Jordan because they pool experience and information.

Apart from full membership,  the board may register honorary and alliance members.
