Omani low-fare airline SalamAir has launched a new route between Mogadishu Aden Adde International Airport in Somalia and Muscat, Oman, marking the first ever direct service between the two destinations.
The new route is part of SalamAir’s growth strategy in alignment with Oman Vision 2040, which aims to enhance international connectivity, support tourism, facilitate trade shows, and contribute to economic diversification.
“Launching the first direct service between Oman and Mogadishu is a strategic milestone for SalamAir and is part of our strategy of developing news markets,” said Adrian Hamilton-Manns, Chief Executive Officer of SalamAir. “We continue to expand our network in East Africa and expect to add more currently unserved destinations in the near future. Somalia is the 3rd East African country in our network, joining Kenya and Sudan. Somalia has seen significant economic growth and development in recent years; our direct flights will further stimulate the economy and help create new travel and trade opportunities.”
