Oman Air to resume flights to a dozen countries by October
Oman: Muscat-based Oman Air will resume flights to 18
cities in 12 countries, including the UAE and Qatar by Oct. 1, national daily
Times of Oman has reported.
There will be two scheduled flights per week to Dubai and Doha, the airline
announced on Twitter.
The move comes as international air travel gradually returns to normal after
months of shutdown due to the coronavirus pandemic.
“Masks are required when guests are on board the aircraft and in Oman’s
airports. (Physical) distancing is maintained while guests board and exit the
aircraft, which are carefully cleaned after each flight and at the end of every
day,” the company assured in a statement, adding in-flight service has also been
modified to ensure safety of passengers.
Those travelling to Muscat were encouraged to visit the website of the Omani
Civil Aviation Authority, as well as relevant sources from countries of
destinations, to check COVID-19-related guidelines and ensure a smooth journey.
