Airline company, Gulf Air, will be launching direct flights from Kuala Lumpur to Muscat, Oman beginning March 28 this year.
In a statement here Wednesday, Gulf Air said that the ongoing development of Gulf Air's network was in response to customer preferences for increased, non-stop and frequent access to growing business and leisure destinations and its expansion plan to popular regional and international routes.
"With the growing bilateral relations between Malaysia and the Gulf in business and tourism, we believe that the time is right to focus on Muscat," said Gulf Air's general manager for Malaysia and Brunei, Lindsay White.
"Business and leisure travellers now have a unique opportunity to fly direct to the Gulf from Kuala Lumpur International Airport, and avoid the need to transit via Bangkok, usually associated with journeys to the Middle East region," she added.
The new Muscat service will start with three flights per week on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
Gulf Air is operated by Airbus A340 aircraft, where it also provides onward connections within the Gulf Air network that extends across the Middle East and Westbound to Europe.
