Oman Air

Oman Air, founded in 1993 and headquartered in Muscat, is the flag carrier of the Sultanate of Oman. The airline operates its hub at Muscat International Airport, which underwent a major expansion with a new passenger terminal. Oman Air serves destinations across the Middle East, the Indian subcontinent, Southeast Asia, East Africa, and Europe. The airline's fleet includes Boeing 787-8 and 787-9 Dreamliner for long-haul routes, Boeing 737 MAX 8, and Airbus A330-300 aircraft. Oman Air's cabin products include First Class with enclosed suites on the Boeing 787, Business Class with lie-flat seats, and Economy Class. The airline is known for offering a premium product that competes with the larger Gulf carriers despite its smaller size, with in-flight service reflecting Omani hospitality and traditions, including dates and Omani coffee during boarding. The Sindbad frequent flyer program offers tiered membership with earning and redemption options. Oman Air is wholly owned by the Omani government and does not belong to any global airline alliance, though it maintains codeshare agreements with several international carriers. The airline plays an important role in supporting Oman's tourism ambitions, connecting Muscat to key source markets in Europe and Asia. Oman Air also operates domestic services to Salalah and Duqm within the Sultanate. The airline has positioned itself as a boutique carrier, emphasizing service quality over the sheer network scale of its larger Gulf neighbors.
