Earn and Redeem
Oman Air is not part of any airline alliance, but the new partnership enables you to earn Flying Blue Miles on all Oman Air flights, regardless of the cabin class. You’ll accumulate miles according to the table below.
Additionally, you can redeem your Flying Blue Miles for award flights on Oman Air. Reward flights are already available. Follow our tutorial below to find the best reward seats using AwardFares!
Business Class Experience Like First Class
Oman Air’s Business Class is known for including features that rival some airline’s First Class offerings. Here’s what makes it feel so luxurious:
- Spacious Seats: On their Boeing 787 Dreamliners, they feature “Apex Suites” in a 2-2-2 configuration. However, the window seats have a special privacy shield that creates a very separated feel, almost like a mini-pod. There’s ample legroom, and when the seat reclines fully flat, it offers a comfortable sleeping surface with generous footroom – unlike some business class seats with cramped footwells.
- Top-notch Amenities: They provide plush cushions, blankets, and a mattress pad, making for a very comfortable sleeping experience. The amenity kit includes luxurious touches like Amouage fragrance and Oman Air-branded water. Noise-canceling headphones and a personal touch screen entertainment system add to the premium feel.
- Personalized Service: Oman Air is known for its attentive cabin crew who provide turndown service for your seat and cater to your needs throughout the flight. The airline also offers a VVIP experience (provided by Jetex) including a deluxe meet and greet, fast-track airport services, luxury car with chauffer, and lounge facilities.

If you have a particular date in mind, add it by tapping on the Calendar field.
Then, AwardFares will search for available flights on that day, showing the results in a list below.

AwardFares lets you easily sort results by price and find the best deals in just a few clicks. On the result list, tap on the different header columns to sort the results by price. Use the Eco, Prem, Biz, and First class tags to find cheap awards across multiple dates, itineraries, and airlines.

Once you find your desired flight, click the Book button.
AwardFares will redirect you to Air France’s website to complete your booking without the need to re-enter your search criteria, as it will be pre-populated. Note that Flying Blue does not have a centralized booking portal, so you’ll need to book through either Air France or KLM website.
