Vaccine Passport Initiative Creates Excitement For Travel Sector

Muscat: Oman’s travel and tourism sectors are ecstatic over the International Air Transport Association’s (IATA) announcement of accepting vaccinated passengers as a global best practice to reopen borders and support the global travel sector. According to statistics, more than 20 countries have wholly or partially lifted restrictions for vaccinated travelers.
Companies operating in the travel and tourism sector in the Sultanate heaved a sigh of relief. They welcomed the travel body’s decision to revitalize the industry, which is trying to overcome the crisis caused by the pandemic.
They hope that accepting vaccinated passengers with proof would boost Oman’s travel and tourism sector revive and help the world get back to normal.
“I think allowing vaccinated passengers travel across the world is the best option towards normalcy. That will benefit the tourism sector as Oman and other countries can start accepting tourists to enter the countries,” says Abdullah Ali al Hashami, Tourism Promotion Specialist at the Ministry of Tourism.
“I believe after the end of the current pandemic, we will see a big change in the travel and tourism sector as everyone is looking forward to traveling. That will lead to starting afresh and strong travel movement around the world in general and for Oman as a tourist destination,” adds Abdullah.
