Oman Air, the Diamond Sponsor and Official Carrier for Salalah Tourism Festival in its continuing efforts to boost inbound tourism, has designed attractive family rates for passengers travelling from Muscat to Salalah who can now plan to escape to the verdant and delightfully cool Salalah.
Abdulrazaq Alraisi, Senior Manager – Sales, Oman Air, said: "Oman Air is happy to play a pioneering role in activating internal tourism by offering packages and prices that would attract the general public to travel to Salalah. With the heat soaring in the Gulf, the need to cool off in a cooler place has become a need of the moment for everyone. Oman Air's efforts in this regard have not only made the passengers appreciate the ingenuity of the National Carrier but also are earning it laurels for helping boost the tourism potential of Salalah and matches well with the slogan of the ongoing Salalah Tourism Festival – 'family get-together'."
To help families fly to Salalah and enjoy the clement weather, Oman Air is offering a wide range of fares for family members during the Khareef season in Salalah.
The special rates that are on offer for passengers travelling from Muscat to Salalah and back are as follows:
RO 60 each for Parents and RO 20 for each child for parents travelling with children less than 12 years with one month ticket validity, special fare of RO 50 per ticket for group 
booking of a minimum of ten adult passengers and maximum of 30 adult passengers travelling jointly (two children paying applicable child fare are considered as one group member) and a special rate of RO 177 for passengers, who are regularly traveling to Salalah or Muscat which includes 4 tickets resulting in a saving of RO 95. All prices are excluding taxes.
