Oman Air CEO Korfiatis Confirms Healthy Growth After Five New Routes Launch

Oman Air Chief Executive Con Korfiatis has declared the carrier’s network expansion healthy following the inauguration of five new routes in a single month, marking a defining milestone in its transformation plan. The launches to Singapore, Sochi, Tashkent, Dubai–Salalah, and Abu Dhabi between 2 and 9 July 2026 bring the network to 49 destinations, significantly boosting connectivity and load factor expectations of 75–79% on new corridors. This expansion, executed since early 2024 after prior route cuts and contract renegotiations, signals the airline’s shift from restructuring to growth, positioning Muscat as an East–West hub connecting Asia-Pacific and Europe while supporting Oman Vision 2040 tourism goals.
