It paused flights to Kuwait City, Sharjah, Doha and Dammam until March 20, 2026.

SalamAir, which connects Muscat with dozens of destinations across the Middle East, Asia and Europe, said the suspensions are temporary and driven by safety considerations related to the airspace restrictions.

SalamAir urged affected passengers to check their booking status online.

It warned that schedules may continue changing and advised travellers not to proceed to the airport unless they receive confirmation.

The airline said affected passengers will be contacted directly and offered options including flight rescheduling, refunds, or alternative travel arrangements, and it provided 24/7 customer support at +968 2427 2222 and [email protected] for assistance.

The suspensions reflect wider, unprecedented disruption to Middle Eastern airspace after escalating tensions involving Iran, Israel and the United States.

Those tensions have forced airlines to cancel or reroute thousands of flights.

Airlines including Oman Air, Qatar Airways and Emirates have also cancelled flights, rerouted aircraft or operated limited schedules.

These changes have led to crowded terminals, delays, and in some cases rerouting passengers via alternative hubs or by road.

Industry analysts in the article said the Gulf’s role as a global aviation crossroads makes the region especially sensitive to geopolitical tensions and warned that full recovery could take time if regional tensions persist.
