Is it possible to book the flight from Vienna to Muscat myself? Can I extend the trip by 3 days at the beach?

It is basically possible to book the flight yourself. However, for some dates we have group flights where the flight from/to Frankfurt is 'mandatory'. If you tell us the exact date, I will gladly check if it is possible to book the flights yourself. The customer must also land by 7am at the latest to be on time for the program start. A beach extension is also possible.
