Oman Air looking to expand fleet
- Oman: Wednesday, March 06 - 2013 at 04:40
The chief executive of Oman Air, Wayne Pearce, has said the carrier is examining a follow-on order for Boeing Co's 787 Dreamliner that would allow the airline to increase European frequencies, Bloomberg has reported. The Muscat-based carrier is also looking at adding Boeing 737 short-haul aircraft to boost existing routes to India and within the Middle East as part of a move to extend the fleet to 50 planes from the 42 in service or due for delivery, said Pearce. "You need a bigger fleet to get the critical mass," he said. "With a bigger magnitude you get better profitability, and we're in an ideal part of the world with plenty of opportunity to keep growing."
