MUSCAT — Oman Air (WY) reported stronger 2025 commercial results, led by 5.8 million passengers, higher capacity utilization, and a bigger share of visitors flying directly into Oman.
Oman Air (WY) reports 5.8 million passengers carried in 2025, up 8% vs 2024 and 57% vs 2022, as it executed a multi-year transformation plan aimed at reaching financial breakeven.
The airline (WY) also said 64% of its 2025 passengers flew point-to-point into Oman, after that segment posted an “unprecedented” 34% year-over-year increase—a notable signal that WY’s network and pricing strategy leaned harder into inbound demand.
Uptick in Capacity
On the operational side, WY said capacity utilization rose to 82% in 2025 from 76% in 2024 (and +26 points vs 2022), reflecting tighter network discipline and improved revenue management.
The carrier also highlighted Salalah as a domestic growth lever: the carrier increased Muscat–Salalah capacity by 17% and carried 19% more passengers on the route in 2025 vs 2024.
Oman Air tied that push to tourism upside, projecting up to 580,000 new passengers to Salalah by 2030 and more than OMR 320 million in tourism revenue tied to related initiatives (including new charter flying).
What we're seeing is a connectivity expansion arc, specially after WY joined the oneworld Alliance in mid-2025 followed by an instant scale-up in global reach.
