Oman Air has announced being the Official Carrier and Diamond
Sponsor of this year's Salalah Tourism Festival. The festival, which runs from
the 1st of July to the end of the same month, celebrates the unique history,
culture and climate of the Sultanate of Oman's most southerly Governorate. Due
to its exceptional natural phenomena, Dhofar is considered as one of the most
arresting areas for tourists particularly in autumn, where the temperature
ranges between 15 to 22 degrees Celsius.
Usama Bin Karim Al Haremi, Head of Corporate Communications and
Media at Oman Air, said:
"We are very pleased to once again be playing a pivotal
role in promoting Dhofar Governate in general and Salalah Tourism Festival in
particular. The Salalah Tourism Festival is a wonderful window on the amazing
history, culture and traditions of this breathtaking region of Oman and,
between July and September, we are offering some superb deals. Travelers from
throughout the AGCC area and beyond will be given the opportunity to experience
the Khareef. This monsoon season is unique to the area, bringing lush greenery,
bright flowers, waterfalls, and relief from the heat."
Hundreds of thousands of AGCC nationals are preparing to head to
the green hills and valleys of Salalah, the principal town of the Governorate
of Dhofar. Located between the blue waters of the Arabian Sea and the
spectacular, precipitous mountains, beyond which lies the vast desert of the
fabled Empty Quarter, it is the only area of the AGCC where people can escape
the desert heat in the summer and experience the relief of rain
Along with the Festival, Oman Air will also be promoting the
wider attractions and superb facilities of Dhofar, which is also famed for its
many archeological sites and ancient Frankincense trade.
Usama Bin Karim Al Haremi added:
"Oman Air has sponsored this event since its inception and
we are proud to be helping to boost domestic tourism through our support of
various forums and events held throughout Oman. This initiative is part of the
national carrier of Oman's efforts to develop greater levels of in-bound
tourism and it again signals our strong commitment to building a solid
AGCC-wide tourism proposition.
I
invite everyone to make the most of our latest, great-value promotional
packages, to come to Oman and experience our wonderful hospitality, as well as
learn what this wonderful country has to offer over the summer months. "
I would also encourage people to take a twin-centre holiday, so
they can go to see the Salalah Tourism Festival and then come to Muscat for a
few days. This will not only offer them the opportunity to see Oman's beautiful
and historic capital for themselves, but also to experience the diversity of
history, culture and landscapes that Oman has to offer. Join us for a uniquely
enjoyable journey to a very special destination”.
