Increase in number of special flights the coming days

The possibility of normal flights from Oman is expected to get slightly longer with the Public Authority of Civil Aviation (PACA) indicating that the guidelines issued for airlines operating will continue until the end of August.

“The unscheduled and special flights to facilitate the travel of citizens and foreigners between the Sultanate and various countries of the world will continue during this period. Flights that pass the Omani airspace, domestic services to Khasab airport, and oil concession areas, will continue to operate as the guidelines laid out by the government, PACA said.

Meanwhile, Oman Air and SalamAir have announced several special flights to be operated for different destinations from the country, including Sudan, Turkey, France, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, and Indonesia among others.

India will also operate special flights under Vande Bharat Mission for nationals who wish to return home from Oman. Indian residents who wish to resume work in Oman or join their families can return in some of these special flights, provided they have an entry permit from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).
