Gulf Air is set to increase
its daily service from London Heathrow to Muscat
by the end of March. The airline plans to operate two daily direct flights from
London Heathrow every day except Thursdays. The increased services will begin
on the 27th of
March 2006.
“Oman is booming. We have seen a
strong increase in traffic since we launched this route in June 2004. This
latest increase is in response to increased demand from passengers traveling
between the UK and Oman, contributing to the substantial growth
that Oman
is experiencing across its business and tourism sectors,” says Gulf Air General
Manager, UK Clive Wratten.
The recent opening of the new
Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort & Spa has added to demand from passengers traveling
to the Sultanate of Oman for holidays and on business, Gulf Air added.
The flight schedule, starting
27th March 2006, will be as follows:
- London Heathrow to Muscat
- GF 004 departing 11:00 arriving 21:40 (Daily except Thursdays)
- GF 006 departing 20:30 arriving 07:10 next day (Daily)
- Muscat to London
Heathrow
- GF 009 departing 01:40 arriving 06:50 (Daily except Thursdays)
- GF 005 departing 13:50 arriving 19:00
