Mangaluru, Dec 15: Air India Express has announced that it will resume direct flight services between Mangaluru and Muscat from March 2026, restoring an important international air link for passengers from the coastal region.
Airport authorities said the service will operate twice a week—on Sundays and Tuesdays—from March 1. The initial flights are scheduled on March 3, 8 and 10, followed by March 15 and 17, with the same operating pattern to continue thereafter. The flight duration is approximately three hours and 25 minutes.
The Mangaluru–Muscat route was earlier operated under the 2025 summer schedule, with services beginning on July 14. At that time, Air India Express had operated four flights a week before suspending the service.
Officials said the summer schedule will come into effect from March 29, after which changes in flight timings and departure schedules from Mangaluru are expected. Passengers have been advised to check the latest schedules while planning their travel.
The resumption of direct flights to Muscat is expected to significantly benefit expatriates, business travellers and others, further strengthening Mangaluru’s air connectivity with the Gulf region.

Even yesterdays cleaners are becoming todays drivers.... Traffic dept should subject the heavy duty drivers to rigorous tests......
We cannot blame anyone. The government should make a system that Heavy vehicles like Truck, Buses, Vans, Pickup all should be in a separate street . Only the cars, scooters, autorikshaw and motor bikes in other roads should be travelled, then only accident percentage will be decreases and safety. Only Ambulance can go in any street . And if we blame government or any one it is not positive behavior.
Safety taken for Granted. Selective Intolerance of we Indians. Value of Human life does not matter to the Politicians. Lazy Bureaucrats only concerned about their Pocket Money. Is it really possible to change India???
