GECAS has announced the delivery of the first of two A321NX aircraft to SalamAir with the arrival of one, MSN 10483, into Muscat, Oman from Hamburg. As announced in late 2019, GECAS is providing the two aircraft from its own skyline.
SalamAir is the first operator of A320neo aircraft in Oman. With a current fleet of six A320neos, the operator’s presence has grown to touch over 84 airports, in 35 countries. Based in Oman’s Muscat International Airport, SalamAir is now among the first to operate the A321neo in the Middle East.
“SalamAir is dedicated to meeting Oman’s increasing demand for affordable travel options while providing a comfortable, flexible and reliable experience and a full range of services for our passengers,” Captain Mohamed Ahmed, CEO of SalamAir, said, adding “The longer range of the A321NX and additional 32 seats; enables us to continue offering travel to add new destinations and increase capacity on existing routes with more direct links between the Sultanate and friendly countries.”
