Muscat – Starting in February 2025, the airline will operate non-stop flights from Muscat to Nairobi, offering passengers an affordable and convenient way to explore Kenya’s vibrant culture, stunning landscapes, and thriving economy.

With two weekly flights, SalamAir aims to strengthen its growing network, providing travellers from Nairobi access to Oman and further destinations at low prices. This expansion aligns with Oman’s broader vision to increase tourism and trade links between the Middle East and East Africa.

SalamAir CEO Adrian Hamilton-Manns expressed his excitement about the new route: “We are thrilled to add Nairobi to our expanding network, marking a significant milestone in our expansion into the African market. Nairobi is not only a hub for international travellers but also a growing centre for business, technology, and education, making it a vital link for those looking to connect with opportunities in both regions, emphasizing Nairobi’s position as the key gateway to East Africa. With Nairobi added to our network, we can now connect passengers from East Africa to India, Thailand, Central Asia, and other points on our network for very low fares.”

SalamAir’s introduction of Nairobi to its expanding network is part of its strategic growth plan of offering cheaper travel options to passengers accustomed to high-fare legacy airline prices. SalamAir is dedicated to a low-cost model and remains committed to offering affordable fares. The Lite fare on the Nairobi route starts at RO 49.99, which is up to 70 percent cheaper than the currently available fares from other carriers.

The low-fare travel ensures that Nairobi, and more points in Africa and beyond, becomes accessible to everyone.
