MUSCAT: Oman Air will resume operating two daily flights between Muscat and London starting from October 26, 2025, in response to growing demand and the strong and sustained operational performance of this vital route.
A second flight will be added on four days of the week – Monday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday – offering Oman Air passengers greater flexibility and more options to suit their travel plans. This move also enhances seamless connectivity with numerous destinations served by the airline’s partners in the Oneworld alliance, particularly in North America. By the summer of 2026, the airline aims to operate up to 14 weekly round-trip flights from Muscat.
Con Korfiatis, CEO of Oman Air, stated that the introduction of two daily flights to London reflects the airline’s commitment to meeting the strong demand from its passengers, particularly as London is a strategic hub in its international network. The United Kingdom is also one of the most important inbound tourism markets for the airline.
He added that strengthening Oman Air’s presence on this key route not only supports the airline’s operations but also aligns with Oman’s efforts to boost its tourism sector. This comes as part of the Oman's ongoing commitment to achieving sustainable growth, especially as it prepares to join the Oneworld alliance. Korfiatis affirmed the airline’s keenness to explore market opportunities and provide an exceptional and distinguished travel experience for its guests.
The new schedule will include two daily flights on Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, offering travellers more seamless and convenient connectivity to destinations in the United States and other long-haul routes.
These flights will be operated using the airline’s latest Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner aircraft, known for their spacious cabins featuring three award-winning travel classes: First Class Suite, Business Class, and Economy Class. — ONA
