Passenger traffic across the Sultanate’s airports reached approximately RO15.2 million, alongside a 4% increase in air cargo volumes. This performance reflects rising travel demand and ongoing improvements in operational efficiency, the company CEO said.
As part of its commitment to enhancing air connectivity, Oman Airports supported the expansion of its route network by attracting new airlines and deepening partnerships with existing carriers. In collaboration with Oman Air, the company also advanced the development of strategic destinations, further strengthening Oman’s links to regional and international markets.
During the year, Oman Air launched new direct routes to key global cities, including Amsterdam and Beijing, reinforcing the Sultanate’s position as an emerging international aviation hub.
At the passenger experience level, Oman Airports achieved significant international recognition. Both Muscat International Airport and Salalah Airport were awarded the prestigious Airport Service Quality (ASQ) awards by Airports Council International, highlighting the high standard of services and the company’s continuous commitment to enhancing the travel experience.
Further enriching passenger experience, a range of new offerings were introduced to the aviation ecosystem, including limousine services, valet parking, and meet-and-assist services.
The opening of the Majan Lounge at Salalah Airport also marked a key milestone in elevating comfort and convenience for travelers.
