Oman Air is further expanding its fleet of Boeing 737-800s with the introduction of two additional aircraft, bringing the total fleet strength to 30. 
The expansion follows shortly after the Sultanate of Oman and India signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to meet increased demand for air services between the two countries. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was also signed between Oman and Pakistan to increase number of flights between the two countries.
Both wet-leased aircraft will be deployed in the beginning of February and will double daily services from Muscat to Chennai, Delhi and Hyderabad. In addition, frequency of flights from Muscat to Lahore and Muscat to Islamabad is being increased to offer a daily service.
Oman Air’s Chief Executive Officer, Wayne Pearce said: “Additional aircraft allows us to be more flexible and cater to increasing demand.”
The new aircraft offer 12 seats in business class and 150 in economy.
