To celebrate a successful year for Oman Air, the National Carrier of the Sultanate of Oman is discounting prices by 50% on all international flights in its Global Sale. The sale will run from 4 – 10 December 2016 and travel will be valid from 1 January – 30 September 2017.

Due to Oman Air’s ambitious and dynamic growth programme, expanding its already extensive network, there is a huge choice of international destinations in the Sale. The airline currently flies to multiple destinations in Asia, Europe, Middle East, also North and East Africa. From 9 December it will launch its inaugural flight to Guangzhou, highlighting the continued expansion of the airline into thriving markets.

Another new flight route to be launched will be the daily service between Manchester and Muscat on 1 May 2017, which follows up the recently introduced double daily flight between Muscat and London.

Abdulrahman Al Busaidy, Chief Commercial Officer of Oman Air said: “The launch of the Global Sale is one way of rewarding our loyal customers. Oman Air is committed to continuing to provide an award winning service, which is prevalent through every aspect of flying with us. With that in mind, we are delighted to offer our customers great discounts to travel to destinations throughout our expanding network; we always put the customer at the heart of its decision-making and we hope this Global Sale will offer even more incentive to travel with us.”

Oman Air’s continuing strive for excellence has resulted in the National Carrier winning outstanding awards recently including being honoured as the ‘World’s Leading Business Class Airline’ and ‘Best Economy Class Airline’ in The Middle East at the World Travel Awards 2016. Other awards include the ‘Best Business Class Airline’ in the Middle East at the Business Destinations Travel Awards and the ‘Best Airline in Europe, Middle East & Africa' at the Seven Stars Luxury Hospitality & Lifestyle Awards held in Marbella, Spain. Most recently Oman Air won the award for ‘Best New Carrier of 2016’ at the Council of British Hajjis Annual Meeting as recognition for the airline’s impact within the Hajj and Umrah market in 2016.

Oman Air has also made strides in enhancing the passenger experience pre-flight with its own premium lounges in both Muscat International Airport and Suvarnabhumi International Airport in Bangkok where the guests can enjoy a great range of complimentary food and beverages, WI-FI, computer access and even a 15 minute massage in the premium lounge in Muscat.
