The outgoing chief executive of Oman Air (WY, Muscat), Paul Gregorowitsch, has said that the Omani national carrier was considering complementing its passenger aircraft fleet with freighters in due course.
Gregorowitsch told Cargoforwarder Global in an interview that both the B777-F or Airbus freighter models are being taken into consideration with Oman Air planning to capitalize on the large ports in Sohar and Salalah to develop more trade with Iran and Yemen in the future.
Oman Air's wide-body passenger fleet currently consists of four A330-200s, six A330-300s, four B787-8s and two B787-9s.
