SalamAir in the network the desk measures
Computed on 2026-09-07 from AeroDataBox scheduled route statistics. The desk holds departure schedules for 571 airports, and for the OV code that yields 41 city pairs across 40 of them. It is a measured sample of the published timetable and not the whole of it. Frequencies move with the season, and a quote is priced on the flights running the day you ask.

The schedule the desk holds carries the OV code on 41 city pairs, reaching 40 airports in 19 countries and territories. Some of those sectors are flown by SalamAir and some are sold under its code and flown by a partner, which is how the published timetable states it and how a booking has to be read. 80 per cent of those airports sit on Asian time zones, and the next largest block is on African time zones.
01The longest sector held for the carrier is Bangkok (BKK) to Muscat (MCT) at about 4,590 km, and the shortest is Fahud (FAU) to Muscat (MCT) at about 230 km. 12 of the pairs are under 1,500 km and 0 run past 5,000 km, a medium haul shape that usually joins a Gulf departure at a single interchange. The airport that appears most often on those pairs is Muscat (MCT), on 39 of them, which is 95.1 per cent of everything held under this code.
02The thickest sector under the code is Muscat (MCT) to Salalah (SLL) at about 14.4 movements a day, which across a full day is roughly one every 1.7 hours. On a sector at that cadence a missed departure costs a wait rather than a night. 5 of the 41 pairs run four or more times a day and 19 run once a day or less. The second figure is the one that matters when a consignment leaves the factory late, because on those sectors the desk will quote a different carrier rather than promise an hour it cannot hold. After Muscat (MCT) the code leans on Salalah (SLL) on 3, Baghdad (BGW) on 2, Ad Dammam (DMM) on 2 pairs respectively, and those are the airports a dispatcher looks at second when the first routing is full.
The sectors that carry the OV code most often
The 12 sectors the OV code appears on most often, out of 41. Flights a day is the average daily scheduled movement on the busier of the two directions, as held on 2026-09-07. The schedule lists a code against a sector whether the carrier operates it or sells it, so read this as where the code can be booked. Distances are great circle, computed from the published coordinates of the two airports.
Where OV meets the UAE gateways
SalamAir is one of the carriers a courier can board without leaving the Emirates. The desk holds 1 pairs under this code touching Sharjah (SHJ), so a booking can start at a UAE counter and stay on one ticket to the delivery city.
Night restrictions on the airports the OV code uses
A hand carry is bought for the hours it saves, and an airport that will not take a movement after a certain hour can spend those hours back. 1 of the 40 airports this code is booked through carry a restriction the desk holds in writing, checked 2026-09-07. Exemptions and seasonal variations exist, and the desk confirms the position with the airport or the carrier before it books.
- Vienna (VIE), night restrictions. Movements between 23:30 and 05:30 local are limited.
Published lanes that carry the OV code
The site publishes a page for 346 courier lanes. SalamAir appears in the schedule on one of them, and the one it flies most is Sharjah to Muscat at about 4.6 movements a day. That overlap is the honest test of whether a carrier is useful to this desk rather than merely famous.
- Sharjah to Muscat, about 4.6 scheduled flights a day on the busier direction, 340 km.
The countries the OV code opens
Of the 19 countries and territories reached, 14 are reached at a single airport, which for a courier means one airport of entry and a road leg for everything else in that country. The deepest is Oman with 6 airports on this code. The country desk for Oman sets out the customs practice, the working hours and the road legs behind these airports.
Oman (6 airports), Pakistan (6 airports), India (6 airports), Saudi Arabia (5 airports), Bangladesh (3 airports), Egypt (1 airports), Sri Lanka (1 airports), Rwanda (1 airports), Sudan (1 airports), Iraq (1 airports).
