Dhaka: Oman’s budget carrier SalamAir will be launching direct flights to and from Prague, the capital of Czech Republic, from November 4, 2022.

The airline will operate two weekly flights on to Prague, one from Muscat and another from Salalah.

Offering the perfect opportunity to take the trip of a lifetime to the ultimate “city of a thousand spires”, SalamAir flights to Prague departures are scheduled every Friday from Muscat and every Wednesday from Salalah.

The carrier, which operates a fleet of modern A320neo and A321neo, has selected the Czech Republic as its second destination in Europe. The new destination in its network marks the airline’s further expansion into central Europe.

On the occasion, Captain Mohamed Ahmed, CEO, SalamAir, said, “We are very excited to connect Oman with the capital city of the Czech Republic.
