Starting from July 1, 2025, the carrier will operate four flights per week to the Dutch capital, reinforcing its commitment to enhancing international connectivity.
The announcement took place during a formal agreement signing ceremony held in the Netherlands, coinciding with His Majesty Sultan Haitham bin Tarik’s state visit.

“This marks our debut into the Amsterdam market, a city full of cultural vibrancy and economic opportunity,” stated Korfiatis. “Our expansion targets destinations that align with our strategic vision and provide long-term value for tourism and commerce. Europe continues to be our second-biggest source of revenue, and Amsterdam is a critical hub for both business and leisure travellers.”
Pieter van Oord highlighted the importance of the collaboration, saying, “This direct air link represents a crucial step in deepening the relationship between Oman and the Netherlands. It opens new doors for travelers on both sides and strengthens our global ties.”
