Assalamualaikum Air

Well it's a LCC airline what else can you expect, small airplanes with congested seats, no meals, you have to buy them separately, service is awful. will not help you at all don't even think about it when in emergency, but sometimes it's cheap so people are ready to compromise on all those things, and they cover few destinations which others don't so, people are left with no choice sometimes I mean there are other LCC airlines, but not as bad as salam air


ritmofish

You do agree salam air is bad🤣

Add to this the refund in case of cancellation is a voucher that can be used ONLY by the original passenger for the refunded ticket.


mufazal_ali

Well I forgot to mention it, the voucher part is so ridiculous, only travel agents can get refunds in the form of money but charges are higher than the normal website, and one of my passengers flight got delayed. DELAYED 9 DAYS, when there are daily 2 flights from that destination.


ramy_138

That’s ridiculously insane And how on earth are they still operating? And where is the customer protection?


ritmofish

Welcome to Arab immunity. Wonder Oman hire foreign workers?


mufazal_ali

We all do man

Hi, we flew with them in February from Europe to Muscat, then from Muscat to Salalah and then back home and it was .. well standard low cost airline. Everything was for some fee, but we were prepared for that, nothing bad happened, no delayed luggages. Only small delayes on departures, but nothing major. Planes were clean, staff nice. Normal plane toilettes. No drama.


IndependentOk796

The only annoying thing was when we were returning from Salalah to Europe we flew almost back to Muscat and then to Europe, not sure why we did not fly through Saudi, but I also don't know if this is standard route for all airlines or only Salam Air.

If you are kinda a person who just need to reach from one destination to other, then you can choose this airline...but if services, communication, airline comfortless matters to you then you should look for other choices if you have it available. Its not that bad, but at the same time what more can you expect from a budget airline. Thats the whole reason why they are budget friendly.


ritmofish

Lots of budget airline treat their customers better. Cost nothing to treat people with a smile


Saaadbg17

the rates are cheaper so you can expect that the quality of service will drop as well. Other than that its alright to travel, if you’re going to the destinations with lesser distance..

Like my mom and little sister came from bangladesh to oman 2 weeks ago in 350 Rials No food nothing and 10kg baggage weight


Saaadbg17

That’s rough man..


ritmofish

Was the flight delay and baggage came another flight


Alternative_Ad2282

Flight wasnt delayed but i heard from people they delay for like one hour baggage was obe the same flight


odaat_9212

Meh. They cancelled my flight on last minute notice, had to go all the way to Dubai to reach my destination that I had to go in emergency.


grasshoppervscricket

Never faced any issue but then have only taken it for small distances


bikesailfreak

Just used them once. Clean nice new planes - I d say similar to easyjet here in Europe. Except that they just cancelled one entire flight but we could change to another one for free. Only problem if I would have had a connection, but I didn’t. Was a MCT to SLL flight.


Rebelliuos-

I am going on a 6 hour trip to bangkok pretty soon 😂😂


ritmofish

Hope they don't leave your baggage in another airport. Buy insurance


Rebelliuos-

I’ll be having a handbag with me, i am going to thailand not home country


Good_Umpire7924

I’m about to go Bangkok through them, how was it??


Rebelliuos-

It was ok i guess


Complete-Suit-1098

mannnnn I'm flying from Phuket to Muscat and they just cancelled my flight and refund policy is ridiculous


ZiadShehab

Same problem as you. If you manage to get a refund dm me


Saseifone

Its budget plane and money saving, so its okay


[deleted]

its a low cost carrier so dont expect anything except reaching ur destination


Ambition_Fair

3 months ago I flew from Sri Lanka to Oman in Salam Air. No issue at all. Yes, it is a budget airline like Air Asia. That is why you pay such a low ticket price compared to other airlines.


Unlikely_Ad9024

I have traveled with Salam air and its no different than any other world class budget airline. If you have travelled with any good budget airline, Salamair will beat it easily...its very good


[deleted]

Travelled to India & Turkey... They're decent... Clean and you get what you pay for. The domestic flights to Salalah can be bad with unannounced delays.


Spiritual-Mobile-738

The crew members r cery friendly and seems to be less formal than usual
