OMAN Air will boost its Muscat-Colombo service from five-weekly to daily from June 1 to meet increasing demand, according to the airline’s country manager, Gihan Karunaratne.
Having commenced four-weekly flights to Colombo as its 32nd international destination in November 2009, Oman Air’s load factor surged from 50 per cent to 80 per cent within a year, said Karunaratne.
The airline flies mainly from Europe (Germany, Paris and the UK) and the Middle East to Colombo, with some passengers flying onward to Male in the Maldives.
