# SalamAir

SalamAir (Arabic: طيران السلام, romanized: Ṭayarān as-salām) is a low-cost airline from Oman headquartered and based at Muscat International Airport.

## History

Salam Air is owned by the Muscat National Development and Investment Company (ASAAS) which won a government tender in January 2016. Founded in 2014, ASAAS is a partnership between the Oman Investment Authority, Muscat Municipality, and various pension funds. Oman's Public Authority for Civil Aviation (PACA) had invited bids in 2015 for a low-cost commercial airline operator in Oman.
The airline operated three Airbus A320-200s leased from South America's LATAM Group. Its first aircraft arrived in Muscat on November 18, 2016, to coincide with the country's National Day. The airline commenced flights between the Omani cities of Muscat and Salalah from 30 January 2017, and SalamAir flew the Muscat–Dubai route, the airline's first international service, on 28 February 2017 (2017-2-28). It initially served Dubai World Central but the service has switched to Dubai International Airport in October 2017. Since opening, Salam Air has rapidly grown their route network and now fly to over 32 destinations in the Middle East, Asia and Europe.
