Oman- SalamAir resolves airspace entry issue with Saudi Arabia


(MENAFN- Muscat Daily) Muscat- SalamAir said on Sunday that it has resolved the matter with Saudi authorities after its aircraft was not permitted to enter the kingdom's airspace.

On Saturday, the SalamAir flight from Muscat to Jeddah returned to Oman after it was denied entry due to missing information of passengers' data from previous flights that is normally transmitted automatically between the airline's and Saudi authorities' systems.

After clearing this with the Saudi authorities, the flight flew from Muscat to Jeddah on Sunday as per its regular schedule. 'All SalamAir flights are now cleared to fly to their Saudi destinations according to their scheduled times,' Capt Mohamed Ahmed, chief executive officer, SalamAir, said.

'We would like to take this opportunity to thank the authorities in both the Sultanate of Oman and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for their valuable contributions to resolve this matter.
'SalamAir is committed to comply with all regulations abiding by the highest standards of aviation practices.'
