SalamAir launches ticket sales for Salalah to Muscat flights

Muscat: Oman’s first budget airline, Salam Air has launched ticket sales for flights between Salalah and Muscat from January 30 this year, followed by flights from Muscat to Dubai from mid-February.
The tickets are available through the website salamair.com, and a number of affiliated travel agents. Support is also offered to customers through the SalamAir Call Centre via live chat, email and phone.
“The eagerly anticipated launch of SalamAir ticket sales is a significant occasion for the airline and for the people of Oman. Our competitive price structure makes it possible for tourism, leisure and business passengers alike to take journeys more frequently, giving them the chance to experience more,” said SalamAir Chairman, Khalid Al Yahmadi.
"As SalamAir opens the skies, it is proud to contribute to Oman’s future progress and prosperity by meeting the rapidly increasing demand for air traffic, supporting our tourism and hospitality sectors, and generating a range of opportunities for employment and business.”
SalamAir has introduced three easy fare options- Light, Friendly and Flexi. Light, the airline’s lowest fare family, has been designed for customers who travel light and only require hand baggage. Offering great value is the Friendly fare, which includes 20kg of checked luggage plus 7kg of hand baggage.
For maximum passenger convenience and value, Flexi, has all the advantages of Friendly along with priority check-in and the possibility to change flights at no extra cost.
In addition, a budget conscious menu of additional services is also available, which includes extra luggage allowance, seat selection, and priority check-in.
François Bouteiller, CEO of SalamAir said, “We are delighted to reach another significant milestone in the launch of our new airline. Travellers in Oman and Dubai can now book their flights with SalamAir and benefit from the choices we offer.
“We see ticket purchase as the beginning of our customers’ journey with us, a journey that although low on cost, meets the very highest international standards in safety, security and customer service.”
Both of SalamAir’s website and Call Centre (24 272 222) accept payment via Visa and MasterCard credit and debit cards from all major banks. Passengers should note that a fee of OMR 3 per person is charged for all phone bookings and a payment processing charge applies.
Travel Agents who wish to offer SalamAir flights for their customers are invited to register their details on the SalamAir website, and will be contacted by one of the SalamAir sales team to give them access to the Travel Agent Portal.
