The Emirates A350 begins regular operations to Muscat

The deployment of the next-generation aircraft, originally slated for 1 July, was brought forward by a week.

Muscat is among the first few cities in the region to receive Emirates’ next-generation A350, joining a growing network that includes destinations like Kuwait, Bahrain, Dammam and Amman as well as other points like Edinburgh, Mumbai, Tunis, Colombo and Ahmedabad.

The airline has so far welcomed seven A350s to its fleet and is expected to serve 17 destinations across its global network by the end of this year.
