Oman Air offers a total of 317,600 seats to and from Salalah.
The increased capacity has been enabled by an increase in flight frequencies between Salalah and Muscat, and between Salalah and Dubai. Eleven flights per day are now operating between Salalah and Muscat.
According to Oman Air, if demand rises, the airline will consider further increasing the number of flights operated and the number of seats offered.
