taxi to Amman Airport from Sheikh Hussain Bridge

[salomonrobyn]

I'll spend a few days in Israel before crossing to Jordan to take a flight AMM->DEL, which leaves at 8:15pm. I'm planning to cross by the Sheikh Hussain Bridge (Jordan River border). Are there taxis waiting on the Jordanian side? Are the official fares posted there? How much is the taxi fare to Queen Aliya airport?
To get to the airport by 5:15pm, at what time should I be at the border, i.e. how long should I expect the border crossing formalities to take, and how long is the taxi ride? I was thinking that being at the border at 3pm would be enough. What do you think?
Many thanks.

Crossing the border from Israel to Jordan doesn't take so long. I guess keep an hour for this. There are taxis usually waiting at Jordanian border post area. Journey time would be 1-2 hours. Probably less than one hour but let's say two to be safe.

Thanks. It sounds like crossing this border is somehow similar to the crossing at Aqaba, where (3 years ago) the process of crossing was simple, several taxis were waiting and official rates were posted. I'm guessing that the taxi fare will be around US$70 and that I should probably budget about 2:30hrs for the border crossing + trip to the airport.
Am I right?
