Oman Air Launches Non-stop Flights to Guangzhou, China

Oman Air, the National Carrier of the Sultanate of Oman, will begin operating flights from its hub in Muscat to Guangzhou, China, from December 9. Guangzhou is Oman Air’s first destination in China.

According to an announcement, the launch of the new route is in response to significant customer demand.

The new destination opens up easy access to Oman Air’s outstanding range of choices for customers from China. “We look forward to a long and prosperous presence within the Chinese market”, Paul Gregorowitsch, Chief Executive Officer of Oman Air, said.

The airline expects the flights to further help strengthen political, economic and social links between Oman and China.

Oman Air will initially run flights to Guangzhou from Muscat four times per week on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays using its wide-body A330, configured with 196 Economy Class seats and 30 Business Class seats. The planes take off from Muscat International Airport, Oman, at 1015 and reach Guangzhou at 2100. Oman Air flights depart Guangzhou to Muscat on Sundays, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays at 0625 and land in Muscat at 1100.

“Guangzhou, the 54th destination on the WY network will be an added value meeting the demand of the traders and businessmen of the two countries, as well as to tradesmen from different neighboring countries”, Gregorowitsch said.
