    15:58 Looking at the unused spoon on the table now, I have a feeling that the crew might had forgotten to serve me dessert. 😂😬

    Hi Rory, I really enjoyed this journey and was quite surprised at how affordable it was compared to Business Class within Australia. I am looking forward to the next leg of this wonderful journey and I wish you a HAPPY EASTER while I am waiting. See you in your next video, Rory.

    The seating in business class looked impressive. lol with a view… funny. Your seating area seemed comfortable. It is a bonus learning the crew wasaccomodating

    Best Business Class seat layout ever - very ingenious 2-2-2 configuration!

    • @RoryDing
      @RoryDing  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I still prefer the 1-2-1 configuration in business but this layout is really good when the aisle seat is empty, and is certainly better than the traditional 2-2-2 seats.

    Thank you Rory for a well produced and informative review. I have flown Oman air a number of times and took this very flight in Business class in 2019. I concur with your comments and I still believe they serve some of the best meals in the sky. The prawns I had were some of the best ever. I would fly with them again anytime.

    • @RoryDing
      @RoryDing  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      There were three choices for the main course: chicken Kofta, fish with rice and a vegetarian dish. It would be nice if they provided a menu tho! 😊

    Thanks for the review Rory. Given the competition from its Gulf rivals, Oman Air simply has to be good otherwise it will fail. For your info main Gulf airlines like EK, EY, QR and GF serve alcoholic drinks. All are sixth-freedom carriers so they must cater to a global market.

    Great review Rory. I flew Omanair to Europe from NZ last August/ September via KL with Malaysian (meh). I will go out of my way to fly WY again. Omanair puts many, supposedly, higher rated ME and Asian airlines to shame. Only wished they flew their own aircraft to Australasia as they'd carve out a decent niche of loyal flyers, for sure.
    That fish dish you mentioned? It's 'machbous', a bit like a delicately spiced biryani. The fish was likely grouper. I ordered this exact dish as a meal upgrade in economy ex Muscat (only extra $20 so peanuts . Dish served on porcelain plates with a lovely fresh side salad and a passionfruit pannacotta). Even the normal economy meals were v good ex KL and Zurich. The Omani crew were uniformly warm, professional and modest. Great that they're joining oneworld. Qantas and Malaysia better look out if ever WY gets serious about serving the Australasia to Europe market. If there was any downside, Oman itself was insanely hot in September when i was there... 46c (google 'real feel' 48!!)..especially coming from a chilly Zurich.

      Hi
      As mentioned towards the end of the video, I booked a multi-city flight with Omanair: Cairo-Muscat-Kuala Lumpur-Denpasar.
      The Cairo to Muscat flight was operated by Oman Air’s 737, and it was a red eye, there’s not much to talk about so I didn’t film it. 😊

  • @edmundcarew7235
    @edmundcarew7235 ปีที่แล้ว

    Completely agree with your assessment, but I fly via Manila as cheaper than going via Bangkok or Kuala Lumpur. That I dislike KL's airport and find Bangkok tedious adds to the attractiveness of Manila, although nor is it perfect.
    This route including an Australian connection on PAL is priced well below Singapore Airlines, overrated Qatar Airways and an airline that's apparently gone downhill since I travelled, Etihad. Also Emirates like Qatar on some routes uses outdated 777s that are six across in business class but lacking Oman Air's features including direct aisle access for window seats.
    Oman Air has to be one of the best airlines in the Middle East: I couldn't fault it, although the test might be if one flight had problems.
    The service on board was excellent.
    Unlike some YTubers, you are cluey enough to show us the food options slowly: it's poor when others move the camera quickly. The lounge at MCT is sensational but with a typical connection one doesn't get more than an hour and 15 minutes to enjoy the selection, and ambience.
    Well done on a fair, not exaggerated review.
