I'm hoping to take my Mavic to Jordan next month, and I'm curious how the process went for you to get through customs. Thanks for any advice you can share.
Sorry for the late reply. Just got back from Iceland
Like I said I didn't know it was not allowed in Jordan. Customs did not check me but if they did they would have seized it. Whether they would return it to you on the way out I am not sure. But in general you cannot fly anywhere but remote areas. Definitely not in populated areas in Amman where drone footages of the palace will earn you a visit form the intelligence agencies. You can feign ignorance and bring it in and say you didn't know. But if you do make sure you do not fly in Amman and only in Wadi Rum.
For Egypt don't even try. My guide had a client who did it and was delayed in the airport because the intelligence services interviewed him.
Another place you cannot bring drones that I know of is Bahamas. They will seize it once they see it.
