Travellers who wish to travel to Tehran – the capital of Iran – straight from Muscat in Oman, can do so now thanks to Oman Air’s new daily service. This new service will begin operations from 1st September 2012.

The newly introduced Muscat-Tehran route will put in use Oman Air’s new Embraer 175 regional jets. Passengers will love the new jets, as it promises to offer amazing levels of comfort in both Business and Economy Classes.

“We are extremely pleased to be launching our new service between Muscat and Tehran and to be offering customers the opportunity to travel on-board our outstanding Embraer 175 regional jets. Tehran offers visitors the opportunity to gain insights into not only Iran’s unique culture, but also its rich and ancient history. Furthermore, Tehran is a major business hub and we anticipate strong demand from both business and leisure passengers,” said Wayne Pearce, Oman Air’s CEO.

The new Muscat-Tehran service is a great opportunity for travellers in Oman and elsewhere to visit Iran, while travellers from Iran can enjoy the luxury of flying non-stop to Muscat.
