The project is expected to enhance productivity and deliver cost savings for the airline across its expanding route network, which will reach 40 destinations by the end of this year.

Peter Hill, Oman Air CEO, said: “There are several advantages to choosing SITA as our single network provider. We will have improved network performance thanks to a bandwidth upgrade, which also enables us to use additional applications. The cost savings will also be significant.
Hani El Assaad, SITA Regional Vice-President, Middle East, and Turkey said: “This project is a perfect illustration of how smartly deployed IT services can enable both savings and improved productivity for an airline in a time of economic difficulty. Oman Air will be well-placed to take advantage of the economic upturn when it happens.”
