It is very easy to find a cab in Amman, as there are thousands, passing from every district of the city night and day. Taxis in Amman taking you anywhere and in a low price. For example, you can cross the city from one edge to the other playing no more than 5 dinars. All of them use taximeter, just get sure its on when you enter for the ride. At night expect to pay something more than the taximeter price, its up to you. 

From the airport to Amman and vice versa you have to negotiate the prices with the driver before you start. Expect to pay around 15 dinars for transfering to or from the airport, though higher prices (20-25 dinars) are not uncommon, especially if you are new to the city! But dont worry, even if this is the case, the taxi fare is again very low in contrast with cabs in Europe or US. So enjoy a happy and safe ride in Amman!

PS. Most of the taxi drivers speak or understand English so language will not be a problem. Enjoy the imaginative "traditional" internal decor found in many Amman taxis and exchange info with the taxi driver, they are usually friendly and eager to help the visitors of their city.
