levels of operational readiness as its fleet and network continue to
grow.
The agreement focuses

capacity, expert engineering oversight, and efficient inspection cycles.
As the airline
prepares for additional aircraft joining its fleet in the coming years,
ensuring timely and high-quality base maintenance has become central to
supporting stable and reliable operations.

beyond, our aircraft are constantly in motion, connecting more passengers to
more destinations than ever before. This agreement gives us the confidence that
our fleet is maintained to the highest standards, ensuring we deliver safe,
dependable operations across our network. As we prepare for further growth in
the coming years, securing strong technical support is vital, and this
partnership ensures SalamAir remains ready to serve its expanding network with
consistency and reliability.”
Fraser Currie, Chief

more than sixty years of experience, Joramco brings strong engineering
capabilities and extensive expertise in A320 family heavy maintenance. This

operational requirements.”
Adil Al Sheibani,

engineering ecosystem by giving SalamAir access to specialised heavy
maintenance capabilities that support both immediate readiness and long-term
fleet sustainability. Joramco’s experience in A320 structural, systems, and
reliability-centered maintenance aligns closely with our strategic goals as we
expand our fleet. In addition to scheduled maintenance, the selected aircraft
will also undergo full exterior painting and cabin refurbishment as part of the
partnership.
As SalamAir works toward increasing its fleet to 25 aircraft by 2028, this agreement with Joramco reinforces the airline’s focus on building a strong, dependable maintenance foundation that supports long-term growth, operational reliability, and the advancement of Oman’s aviation and logistics sectors. -TradeArabia News Service
