The flag carrier of the Sultanate of Oman, Oman Air, has joined oneworld as the alliance’s 15th member.
Oneworld customers can access Oman Air’s growing global schedule from 1 July, which includes the launch of a new non-stop Muscat–Amsterdam service.
Nat Pieper, CEO of oneworld commented on the announcement: “We are proud to welcome Oman Air to the oneworld family. Oman Air brings valuable strategic reach and award-winning product and service to the alliance. This partnership opens up exciting new connections for our customers, particularly across the Gulf and South Asia, and reinforces oneworld’s position as the premium alliance for international travellers.
Oman Air will be providing oneworld Emerald, Sapphire, and Ruby customers benefits such as earning and redeeming miles, earning status points, priority check-in and boarding and lounge access. Oman Air’s top tier customers will receive oneworld priority benefits including a network of nearly 700 premium airport lounges globally, as well as newly opened oneworld-branded lounges in Amsterdam’s Schiphol and Seoul’s Incheon airports.
“Oman Air is honoured to be joining the oneworld alliance, whose members and global footprint represent the best of what international travellers want to experience,” said Con Korfiatis, CEO of Oman Air. “We are thrilled to be able to welcome oneworld customers to the Sultanate of Oman to experience our unique culture, stunning mountain excursions, beautiful beaches, and, above all, the warm hospitality of the Omani people.”
Oman Air’s in-flight experience offers three cabins, including its exclusive Business Studio with private suites on select longer-haul flights, and in recognition for the carrier’s onboard service, the airline recently won the Best Food & Beverage and Best Cabin Service in the Middle East at the Apex 2025 Awards.
The carrier has introduced new on-board service enhancements such as ‘Roqaa Omania’, a thoughtfully curated Omani-themed menu and a bespoke dessert featuring the Omani rock rose in partnership with Oman’s renowned fragrance house, Amouage.
Korfiatis said: “These two awards are a powerful endorsement of our continual efforts to redefine the passenger journey through a blend of heartfelt Omani hospitality, culinary artistry, and exceptional service.
“From our cabin crew to our products and catering teams, our people ensure guests enjoy a seamless and memorable journey, and this is evident time and again in the awards we receive. We are honoured to be acknowledged by our guests; their feedback inspires us to raise the bar at every touchpoint.”
