Fifth repatriation flight from Slovakia from Oman will not take place due to limited airport capacity

The fifth repatriation flight of the Slovak Republic from Muscat in Oman, which was to transport further Slovak citizens on Thursday, cannot take place. The reason is the limited capacity for handling aircraft at the airport in Muscat. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Slovak Republic recommends that citizens use alternative means of transport.

The diplomatic department is negotiating a new date for the repatriation flight and is simultaneously preparing further repatriation flights for Slovaks in the Middle East region. The airport in Muscat has in fact suspended the acceptance of aircraft due to capacity constraints on the Omani side. The Slovak government therefore had to cancel the planned flight, which was to be part of the next wave of rescue operations.

The situation is related to the large number of Slovaks who are currently on holiday in countries in the Middle East, including Oman, Qatar and Jordan. Thousands of Slovak tourists are also passing through the international airports in Dubai and Doha during their travels. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs continues its efforts to satisfy demand for return transport and is adjusting the repatriation flight schedule according to the current conditions at the individual airports in the region.
