Oman Air, the national carrier of Oman, is continuing its expansion across Europe and North America by signing a partnership agreement with Lufthansa.
Under the new agreement, fliers using Oman Air can connect to 59 destinations across Europe and North America from Lufthansa’s Frankfurt and Munich hubs on an interline basis.
Lufthansa will codeshare with Oman Air on Oman Air-operated services from both Frankfurt and Munich to Muscat, allowing their guests to experience the hospitality and service of Oman Air.
In order to provide Oman Air’s customers a seamless travel experience while connecting in Frankfurt and Munich, the airline will be moving terminals in Frankfurt to the Lufthansa-operated terminals, Frankfurt Terminal 1 and Munich Terminal 2.
Oman Air will also be re-timing its current services to Frankfurt to arrive and depart from Frankfurt during the morning to facilitate connections in Frankfurt to Europe and North America in under three hours.
The flagship carrier will be operating its new Boeing Dreamliner 787-9 between Muscat and Frankfurt.
Paul Gregorowitsch, CEO of Oman Air, said: “Strategic codeshares are a crucial way for us to broaden customer choice. Our relationship with Lufthansa is a very important development for Oman Air allowing us to offer even better connectivity in Europe and the North Atlantic and we are delighted to be operating, one of the newest additions to the fleet, the Boeing Dreamliner on the Muscat to Frankfurt route.”
This latest agreement, in addition to the new routes already announced in 2017, demonstrates Oman Air’s progress to becoming a successful, sustainable company.
