Flydubai touches down in Salalah, Oman
flydubai began flights to Salalah, Oman, yesterday bringing its operational network to 60 destinations.
flydubai flight FZ039 touched down at Salalah Airport just hours before the airline began scheduled operations to Mattala, its second point in Sri Lanka, following a special flight in March on the opening day of Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport.
Obaidalla, flydubai’s chief commercial officer said: “With Oman just next door to the UAE, there is a long history of tourism and trade between our countries. Through this new service we hope to further enhance these ties and make it easier and more convenient to travel between Dubai and Salalah. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those involved in enabling us to fly to Salalah for the support and encouragement they have given flydubai.”
Salim Al Kathiri, consul general of the Consulate of Oman in Dubai said: “We are very pleased to welcome flydubai to Salalah and celebrate the opening of this new gateway between Oman and Dubai. As the summer travel season approaches, I look forward to welcoming more visitors from the UAE to Salalah.”
