Learn
from the best
Our structured commercial graduate
programme, starting in October 2022,
will see you begin your journey at Oman
Air with two weeks’ formal induction and
training. During your first week of
induction, you’ll receive soft and hard
skills training directly from senior
commercial leadership. You’ll also be
provided with an overview of each
commercial department and how it all
comes together to drive revenue and
service delivery for the airline. You’ll take
your first flight as an employee of Oman
Air and spend two days shadowing one
of our country managers to see how we
run our business overseas.
In your second week, we’ll fly you to
IATA’s European headquarters in Geneva
where you’ll receive world-class formal
training and sit an exam for the
prestigious IATA Air Transport
Management Certificate. The rest of your
2-year programme will see you spend
three to four months rotating around
each commercial function. Throughout
this time, you’ll continue to receive
training and have a dedicated senior
leadership mentor on your entire
journey.
Your job rotations will expose you to the following commercial departments:
Strategy & Planning
Have your say in the planes we
operate, the places we fly to, and
how often we fly there. Your
analytical acumen will be put to
the test daily as you optimise
fleet operations and develop
profitable market strategies and
strong business cases.
Revenue Management
Learn what it takes to lead an
award-winning airline to success.
With a head for numbers, you can
help develop pricing strategies
that set airline and cargo fares.
You’ll take responsibility for
managing specific routes ensuring
revenue is optimised for each seat
flown.
Sales
Persuasive selling skills and
effective communication are key to
converting passenger and cargo
leads into sales. You’ll keep an eye
on local and international markets
to spot industry trends, identify
opportunities, and position Oman
Air as the airline of choice for travel
to Oman.

Ready to see your creative ideas
take flight? From onboard menus
and in-flight entertainment, this
unit combines innovative
thinking with smart marketing
strategies to win hearts and
minds and guard our reputation

impact on every aspect of the
passenger experience and is
essential for retaining customers.
This includes the seats onboard,
catering, amenity kits, crew
uniforms, in-flight entertainment
and more.
