What's Oman Air's First Class like in 2023? Check out this 4K Trip Report & Honest Unsponsored Review on board an Oman Air 787-9 Muscat to London.
Hi there! My name is Kevin and today we will take a deep dive into the full Oman Air Long Haul First Class Experience. The Oman Air First Class is almost a secret in the industry as it flies on so few routes, but today we are going to take a deep dive into what it offers. We will start off at the Oman Air First Class Lounge where we'll have a light lunch and a massage, then we will board and check out the First Class seat in detail (including my graphics), explore the food and drink offerings on board, have an incredible meal and of course we will wrap it up with The Flip Flop Score.

This is NOT a promotional video. I pay for all of my flights and hotels (and I always tell you how much!) so I can be as honest and impartial as possible. I do not receive any special treatment that wouldn’t otherwise be publicly accessible, in fact, the hotels and airlines have no idea about my visit and that's the way I like it!

I did this flight in November 2022 too! I had a 12 hour layover so stayed at the Aerotel next door to the lounge which was comfortable. Although I did have to call reception to ask them to turn off the jazz music playing in the corridors at 5am! Had a good few hours in the lounge, service was excellent, maybe I’d polished off the Cristal before your visit, apologies.

I had a strong feeling that First wasn't going to be able to replicate the sublime supremeness of your business class flight. Really enjoying the analytical presentation of all your reviews. Hope you will reach 50K subscribers this year & on to ten times that many, you really deserve it. Oman seems to want to capture some of the market share that would in the past have chosen Emirates, Etihad or Qatar First. Makes you wonder, if they will make some changes in the future (hopefully not to downgrade biz). Being parked next to a Gulf Air flight (don't think you'll be picking them again soon) at the end was a rather tongue in cheek moment.

Fully agree with your comments between Oman Air not being able to totally differentiate between their first and business class products. First class choice of red wines appears to be poor and capping the WiFi data as they have is a really bad commercial decision. Overall looks superb.

You're very daring for partaking in so much of the lounge and spa experience with only 1.5 hours in your layover XD All things considered, Oman Air First Class looks to be an outstanding product! Shame I probably won't ever fly it because the routes they offer at the moment just don't fit with where I am and where I'd like to go for holidays.

My husband and I travelled business with Oman Air in May and July 2023 Sydney to London and return (Sydney to Bangkok was with Thai) and also received the same kit and pyjamas, it was beautiful with the Amouge products. We had an amazing experience as it was our first time flying business class. Also very reasonable price, we noticed on one leg of our flight that First class was empty. Great video, thank you.

I have flown Oman Air business class four times and on each and every flight I was never disappointed with the service given. I personally think there should only be business class. There is no real need for first business is so very special. Each time I flew threw Muscat on my way to and from Europe. I only wish there were direct flights from Melbourne, Australia.

Thank you for your straight forward approach. We can appreciate your thoughtful review without personal grudges and sling shots at the airlines. You come in with good expectations of the class and what it should look like. Can’t review economy through a business class prospective like other vloggers do and them come out feeling a huge let down. On the constant high to satisfy all their needs. Each airline and culture is different and you capture that very well and conveys that easily then most.

Hello Kevin. Another great review of an airline I am slightly familiar with. I agree with you regarding First Class offerings on certain airlines. The only time I have flown something similar to First Class is when my spouse and I flew to Glasgow, Scotland in 2017 with Air Transat's Club Class. For what we paid (just over $4K CDN return), it was not worth the cost. The seats were uncomfortable (leather) so much so that I kept feeling like I was going to slide off them onto the floor. The food was passable. The only good thing was having a dedicated check-in line at our originating airport (Toronto Pearson), extra luggage allowance, and being able to board the aircraft first. I can plainly say that was the first and last time I will do that. Keep up the good work!

They also use first class for Frankfurt (with 787) and for Kuala Lumpur with their old A330-300 first class. So with Aeroplan you could get full First class from BKK to FRA/LHR for 100k Aeroplan which is really great value.

Great review, Kevin. Thank you for all the effort you put into that.

You gave Oman 93/100. Who will do better? EY apartments? New SQ? New EK? - how do you deal with jetlag with so much flying? Thank you

Your review of EVA is spot-on with my experience. Great airline, I’ve flew with them many years in all class. Prior to their becoming Star Alliance members, they offered very competitive fare.

Bizarre, but don't pay any attention to them anyway Kevin - keep doing your thing, I'm really enjoying your videos and going off your rising subscriber count, it looks like I'm not the only one.

@@tfft 😁 thanks for reassurance and I agree with You: such a beautiful business class is almost "a pity" 😅. I plan to travel to Japan one year from now (good helath permitting😇) and for now (I am in Italy) I would"select" Qatar airways (QSuite).... do U have some advices? It is a pity that Oman does not serve directly Japan... making two stopovers (from Milan: first Muscat and then I guess Bangkok) is too much for me for first time travelling so far eastward... 😅

Many first class airlines don't provide fast internet or with more duration they are limited because it is broadcasted from satellites which is expensive.

Well, it looked like a bit larger business class seat, but not really a Suite. MHO only. Worth 5000 €?? But surely a unique experience to travel alone in a big department like that. For (Wealthy) People with Big Ego can be a thrill too to their self image, to be in a cabin with no one else around. The short flight time from Muscat to London eas also bit suprising 👍

The First Class on Oman Air is probably there just to cater to certain Middle Eastern families/VIP who will insist on flying first class regardless of how much better it is compared to their business class which is already very good. As their target market is mainly Middle Eastern people who don't drink alcohol, the quality of the wine list is less of a concern.

@tfft Жыл бұрын

I'm selling it to whoever clicks the button 😉 And for the record, 100k points in no way means you must spend that much to earn them. Some credit cards give that just as a sign up bonus.

Worst service and customer care Ive ever had , only flew them once never again, Business Class October 2022, I cant run them down enough, even though id booked with my partner they changed our flight time giving us a 13 hour stop in Oman (not our choice). I asked for a hotel room, they agreed............for me........for my travel partner they said ask at the airport on arrival, we did, waited an HOUR still no answer, asked If I could go to the room with my partner whilst they sorted it out, they agreed. went to the room , fell asleep, 1 hour later they called the room and said your partner HAS to leave. So they expected me to leave my partner in the airport alone for 13 hours ( female). We both left disgusted, we booked at the same time on the same flights sat next to each other. Two Tickets £3400. The air hostess was awful too on the first flight (Birmingham Bangkok) NO MENUS, had to ask her for every tiny detail, never asked if we wanted a sweet we had to ask what else.......... like geting blood form a stone, brought my partner the wrong drink despite writing it down on her order pad. On Arrival in Bangkok they lost both sets of our bags..no apologies, no compensation to buy any clothes. STAY AWAY from they they REALLY DONT CARE.............sadly they are not the only airlines like this now and it deosnt matter what class you book.
