Muscat: SalamAir is looking to connect the southern Omani city of Salalah with direct flights to Kuwait, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, plus its current flights to Sohar.
The move is subject to discussion with local authorities and stakeholders and follows the recent opening of its first sales office in Salalah.

Captain Mohamed Ahmed, CEO of SalamAir, said: “Salalah has the potential of being our hub and will enable us to take major strides to further expand our operations and network. We also want to achieve greater air connectivity for Oman, which is key to unlocking the sultanate’s economic diversification strategy and growth potential, as well as spur key sectors like tourism, aviation and logistics in the process. Our decision will depend on the facilities that will be provided to make Salalah a hub.”
