Oman Air suspends Sohar services
Oman Air has “temporarily suspended” services to the Omani city of Sohar, citing a failure to achieve the necessary financial targets on services there. Sohar is located around 124 miles to the northwest of the Omani capital, Muscat, where Oman Air has its main hub. The carrier said it had tried since Nov 2014 to make flights to Sohar viable, but without success. “Oman Air held numerous meetings with companies and travel agencies at Sohar … where they were offered special passenger fares along with other privileges, so as to promote flights and support connectivity of the route from Sohar to Oman Air’s global network. However, no economic return or impact has been derived for those initiatives, despite the economic challenges the company and country are currently facing.” <br/>
