Oman Air launches new service to Tehran

Oman Air has launched a brand new service between Muscat and Tehran.

Utilising Oman Air’s latest Embraer E175 regional jets, the new service confirms and strengthens the historic links between Oman and Iran. Not only does it offer Omani and Iranian citizens the opportunity to discover the attractions of each other’s countries, but passengers from further afield can now fly to Tehran whilst experiencing Oman Air’s legendary hospitality.

Oman Air’s chief executive officer, Wayne Pearce, said: “ This new route, the 42nd within our ever-growing network, links two of the world’s great cities and offers travellers between the two capitals the opportunity to experience Oman Air’s unique passenger experience and to discover why Oman Air has attracted so many international awards. We look forward to it soon becoming one of Oman Air’s most successful routes.”

The new service will enable passengers to experience that service aboard Oman Air’s brand new Embraer aircraft, which offer 11 business class and 60 economy class seats, each with personal seat-back inflight entertainment monitors which offer access to the latest range of music, movies, TV shows, games and information. Attentive hospitality and delicious inflight dining ensure that every passenger enjoys the very best of 21st Century air travel, whilst additional convenience is offered through web booking, online check-in and, for business class customers, a complimentary door-to-door limousine service. Business class customers can also make the most of Oman Air’s superb new premium lounge at Muscat International Airport.

The launch of the Muscat-Tehran service will be followed by an inaugural ceremony, to be held by Oman Air later this month in the Iranian capital, Tehran.
