The Finnish authorities will organise a charter flight from the Maskat in Oman to Helsinki for the Finns, who want to leave the Gulf region of the armed conflict. Those curious can buy a seat on this flight at their own expense. The price of the ticket is about 2.3 1000 euro per passenger," informed Finnish diplomat Elina Valtonen.
“The Ministry realises that the ticket is costly (especially for a household of 4 people), but the advanced price is affected in peculiar by the increase in insurance prices, fuel and additional costs associated with reaching Oman,” explained the manager of the Consular Department of Jussi Tanner at a peculiar conference yesterday.
It is assumed that about 100-200 people can board the first evacuation aircraft to arrive after Finnish citizens this weekend. However, it is not known – said the authoritative – how many people will scope Oman, or due to the advanced costs, will benefit from this option of departure.
