Oman Air has announced the launch of direct flights linking the Omani capital, Muscat, and Singapore, scheduled to begin on July 2, 2026, in a strategic move that consolidates its position as an air bridge connecting East and West.
This came during a press conference organized by Oman Air, where Con Korfiatis, CEO of Oman Air, said that 3 new destinations will be added to its growing network, with the company starting flights to Baghdad and Copenhagen on December 20, 2025, and to Singapore on July 2, 2026, according to the Oman News Agency website.
He added that Singapore is the latest addition to Oman Air's network of destinations in Southeast Asia and strengthens connectivity between the two regions. Travelers will now be able to fly directly from Muscat to Singapore 4 days a week: Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
Ahmed bin Ali Al-Mahrouqi, Oman Air's Vice President of Sales, noted that with Oman Air's recent entry into the oneworld alliance, the new route will benefit from key traffic flows through member airlines, including Australia, Japan and Hong Kong, providing customers with seamless connecting flights and frequent flyer benefits. He said the Muscat-Singapore route will be operated with Boeing B737 MAX aircraft with Business and Economy Class cabins.
In this context, Lim Ching Kiat, Executive Vice President for Air Hub and Cargo Development at Changi Airport Group, explained that Oman Air's direct route will provide a new and strong link to Changi Airport's extensive connectivity network.
He added that, as a global hub, Changi Airport offers travelers access to a wide range of destinations across Asia-Pacific and beyond, while also supporting new travel opportunities between the two markets.
