The first Muscat-Shiraz route operated by SalamAir, an Omani airline, was officially launched on Wednesday, in a bid to facilitate travel between the two countries, said the airline's CEO.
According to Mohamed Ahmed, the flights carry passengers between the two cities twice a week, IRNA reported.
The new route has been launched following Omanis' growing interest in the attractions of Iran's historically rich province of Fars as well as its health services.
According to Al-Omaniah News Service, Shiraz has been chosen as a flight destination as its advanced medical services, especially in ophthalmology, are well-known among Omanis.
