MUSCAT: Oman’s budget airline SalamAir flew 5,805 flights and completed 86% of its flights on time in the third quarter of 2024, according to its latest On-Time Performance (OTP).
OTP is a measurement of how often an airline is on time and is a good measure of the ability of the airline to meet its commitment to punctuality to its customers.
“This compares favorably to the global OTP benchmark for airlines that 85% of flights should depart on time. During the Q3 period, the airline carried over 970,000 passengers,” the statement from the airline said.

“We believe that it is important to be transparent with our customers and share our OTP,” said Captain Ahmed Al Shidhani, SalamAir’s Chief Operating Officer.
“We believe that increasing the information available to customers will help them make an informed decision on who to choose for their travel needs. We will be sharing our quarterly OTP performance via media releases and on our website, Salamair.com,” he added.
OTP calculations account for all delays, including those caused by weather, and reflect an airline’s reliability in adhering to its scheduled departure times.
SalamAir will publish its OTP results quarterly to provide customers with valuable insights as they make their travel decisions.
