Oman Airlines

Oman Air offers some of the best-value premium cabin airfares to Europe on the market, without compromising on the quality of the journey.

Oman Air is a premium Middle Eastern carrier known for its warm Omani hospitality, spacious cabins and high-quality Business Class experience. Depending on the aircraft and route, its premium products include the highly regarded Business Class seats and newer Business Studio private suites, making it an airline well worth considering when comfort matters.

For Australian travellers, Oman Air can offer some exceptional Business Class opportunities to Europe, particularly when we have flexibility with your departure city, travel dates and connecting flights.

Oman Air connects Muscat with a growing range of European destinations, including London, Paris, Frankfurt, Munich, Milan and Zurich. In an era of expensive premium airfares, finding the right combination of flights can make a substantial difference. That is where Airfare Geeks comes in.

• Oman Air Business Apex Suites (B787s)

For long-haul routes, Oman Air’s B787s offer Apex Suites with superior comfort, high levels of privacy and tech features.

While Oman Air’s long-haul B787 Dreamliner’s offer Apex Suites with fully lie-flat beds, it’s important to note that not all aircraft offer the same experience as the the B737 Max use Air Rest Business Recliners

Business Studio

On selected Boeing 787-9 flights, Oman Air’s former First Class suites are now offered as Business Studio, combining exceptional space, privacy and a fully flat bed with the airline’s Business Class service.

The Soft Product

Oman Air complements its premium cabins with dine-on-demand dining, pyjamas on overnight long-haul flights, amenity kits and an excellent lounge in Muscat. Add Oman Air’s warm Omani hospitality and the overall Business Class experience is hard to beat.

Oman Air’s former First Class suites have been reimagined as the Business Studio, offering an exceptionally spacious private suite with a refined Business Class service. With closing doors, generous personal space, fully flat beds and an impressive premium experience, it is a unique way to travel on selected Oman Air flights.

Oman Air also offers some sensational mixed-class fare combinations, allowing us to combine different cabins and airlines within the same journey. This can be particularly useful from Australia, where we can build itineraries using Economy Class for selected sectors and Oman Air Business Class for the longer journey through Muscat to Europe.

Want some luxury without flying Business Class the entire way? One of our favourite options is to travel Economy in one direction and Business Class on the way home, or strategically mix cabins sector by sector. It can be an excellent way to enjoy Oman Air’s premium experience while keeping the overall fare under control.

Oman Air becoming a full oneworld® member in 2025 has been a game changer for Australian travellers, opening up far more opportunities to combine Oman Air with other alliance carriers and build creative itineraries between Australia, Asia, Muscat and Europe.

For Airfare Geeks, the real benefit is flexibility. Oman Air can now work particularly well alongside other oneworld airlines, allowing us to build fares via gateways such as Hong Kong, Japan, Bangkok, Phuket and Kuala Lumpur rather than simply flying Australia – Muscat – Europe and back.

This has also opened up some sensational mixed-class opportunities. Depending on the fare and availability, we can combine Economy or Premium Economy from Australia with Oman Air Business Class through Muscat to Europe, or reverse the combination and enjoy Business Class for the journey home.

As a oneworld member, eligible Oman Air flights can also earn points and status credits with participating alliance frequent flyer programs. Qantas Frequent Flyers can earn Qantas Points and Status Credits on eligible Oman Air flights, while eligible oneworld status holders can enjoy alliance benefits including lounge access, priority check-in and priority boarding.

For Australian travellers, Oman Air has become an incredibly useful oneworld airline. Its Muscat hub, excellent premium cabins and ability to combine with other alliance carriers give us enormous scope to build unusual routings, stopovers and mixed-cabin journeys while keeping an eye on the overall fare.
