SalamAir plans to add 10 new aircraft

Thursday, 20 Feb, 2025 0

Low cost Omani airline SalamAir plans to boost its fleet with 10 additional aircraft over the coming three years to meet growing passenger demand.

The airline placed a formal request for 10 Airbus A320 aircraft with multiple aircraft lessors in order to meet its growth targets.

“Our return to our low-fare approach has been highly successful, with full aircraft and more demand than we can meet,” said Adrian Hamilton-Manns, SalamAir’s CEO.

“Our expansion over the next five years requires more aircraft to enable us to develop more domestic and regional flights, and to introduce destinations that are currently unserved.”

“These steps will stimulate tourism to Oman and ensure faster growth in the sector.”

In 2024 the airline carried over 3.2 million passengers, representing a 20% increase on 2023 passenger volumes.

Last year also marked the airline`s refocus on low-fares.

This has created a surge in travel demand, SalamAir says.

SalamAir will receive two new A321 aircraft in 2025 to take the fleet size to 15.

The 10 additional aircraft will see the airline grow to 25 A320s by 2028.
