Oman Air has officially joined the oneworld alliance as its 15th member airline, effective 1 July 2025.
The flag carrier of the Sultanate of Oman strengthens the alliance’s presence across the Middle East and provides new opportunities for global travel connections.
oneworld CEO Nat Pieper said the partnership would open exciting new connections for customers.
“We are proud to welcome Oman Air to the oneworld family,” he said.
“Oman Air brings valuable strategic reach and award-winning product and service to the alliance.”
Pieper said the partnership would particularly benefit customers travelling across the Gulf and South Asia, reinforcing oneworld’s position as the premium alliance for international travellers.
oneworld customers can now access an extended network of destinations across Oman Air’s growing global schedule, including the launch of a new non-stop Muscat–Amsterdam service.
As a full oneworld member airline, Oman Air will provide oneworld Emerald, Sapphire, and Ruby customers with benefits including earning and redeeming miles, earning status points, priority check-in and boarding and lounge access.
Oman Air’s top tier customers will gain access to 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 CEO Con Korfiatis said the airline was honoured to join the alliance.
“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,” he said.
“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, with its hub at Muscat International Airport, serves 42 destinations across 22 countries and territories globally, including key oneworld hubs around the world.
The airline offers three cabins, including its exclusive Business Studio with private suites on select longer-haul flights.
Oman Air has received several international awards including Best Food & Beverage and Best Cabin Service in the Middle East at the Apex 2025 Awards.
In late 2024, it became one of only 10 airlines worldwide to be awarded the prestigious APEX WORLD CLASS by YATES+ award, and the first to gain the APEX WORLD CLASS by YATES+ status for its Business Class Lounge at Muscat International Airport.
