The announcement came at a press conference at a city hotel on Wednesday.

Muscat-Dhaka-Muscat route has been in service since October 25 with four flights a week on Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. The new frequencies will see flights on Mondays and Wednesdays being added to the schedule in December.

He said, “Oman Air is very happy to start its second destination in Bangladesh, to the capital city of Dhaka. Flights between Muscat and Dhaka mark a significant milestone in enhancing trade, manpower, tourism and cultural exchanges between Oman and Bangladesh.”
Busaidy said it will also give travellers from Bangladesh the opportunity to enjoy Oman’s renowned hospitality and rich cultural beauty.
He said furthermore, upon arrival in Muscat, they will also benefit from easy access to a wide range of outstanding destinations across the Middle East, East Africa and Europe via Oman Air’s expanding network.
Fight WY-317 will arrive in Dhaka on Fridays and Sundays at 16.30 in the afternoon and depart at 18.00. On Tuesdays and Thursdays Flight WY-315 will arrive at 20.05 in the night and depart at 21.20, offering convenient connections to various Middle East and European destinations.
