More and more airlines are moving back towards normal. On October 1st, Oman Air resumed international air traffic and is among other things flying to again Frankfurt. Now Zurich and Munich are to be served again from December 1st, as if from one Press release the airline.

Three times a week Munich – Muscat

After Oman Air even had to stop air traffic during the corona pandemic, things now seem to be slowly picking up again. Domestic air traffic was resumed in September and international air traffic in October. For the winter, the existing flight plan is now being expanded to include three more destinations: Munich, Zurich and Kuala Lumpur. The first two are of course particularly interesting for German and Swiss travelers.

The airline flies from Muscat to the Bavarian capital on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays. The pure flight time is 6.5 hours. On the same day, it goes back to Muscat from Munich in the evening.

A Boeing 787-9 is used for this connection, which has two-class seating, 30 of which are business class.

How he liked it, you can do it in his Oman Air Business Class Airbus A330 experience report read up.
