Hi Rory good to see another video from you. Business class on plane looked quite good plenty to eat. Am enjoying your trip. Hope you enjoyed it to. Will await for next video. Take care.
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.
Very nice review. The lounge wa impressive, the food looked delicious. 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
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.
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.
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.
Hey Rory it’s me from the South Australia journey last year in June and I am really enjoying your journey in travel keep up the amazing journey’s you are doing ❤❤
Great update Rory, but personally I think Business Class should have more than 3 choices for a meal. Can't wait to see the next install (and if you get satay!)😄
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! 😊 The flight was in the morning I didn’t get the satay 🥹
Wow, what an enviable flight journey on business class on Oman Air! I like this airlines, too being low key & humble, yet the service is excellent. The airline's already on my bucket list for my next trip to Saudi Arabia, a mysterious country just newly opened for tourists.
Great to see you doing flight reviews again Roy it’s great to watch these detailed and awesome videos to give us a perspective on what the airline is like and there service. And certainly good for the people who look to fly on the airline. Once again great to see your videos again popping up on UA-cam so thank you ✈️
Rory, du sprichst vom freundlichen Service. In Deutschland sagt man: Wie man in den Wald hinein ruft, so schallt es heraus. Also ist es für die Flugbegleiter sicher einfach, freundlich zu sein, wenn es der Fluggast auch ist. Stichwort: Wertschätzung🙏
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.
An excellent review, very interesting and informative. However I would have liked to also hear how the cost of Business class compared to Economy class.
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. 😊
How's those people who ignore the safety message at the end there. 😠 I've been on an aircraft when they have had to stop suddenly and those impatient people went flying on to the floor and into each other. Lol....
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.
@@RoryDing Correct, I flew on their A332 between KUL and MCT vv. 787s to London, Paris, Frankfurt, Munich, Milan. And to Bangkok. Recall they only offer first class to London. Pretty redundant given their business class is so good.
Unfortunately we are not welcome there. But it looks amazing airline and lounge. Homosexuality in the Sultanate of Oman is illegal according to §§, 33 and 223 of the penal code and can be punished with a prison sentence up to three years.
@@AlliOopsadaisy Dont misunderstand me. I like Rocky's videos. I watch them all the time. I have also been to Oman flying the national carrier on two occasions - excellent airliner. I like general trivia and decadent nonsense on a regular basis. It keeps me grounded in the important things in life when I am exposed to irrelevant junk. So in that sense it's an excellent UA-cam channel.

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. 😂😬
Sorry sir but this is 787 Dream liner not airbus
I had a very similar experience 2 weeks ago from KL through to Milan. 10/10 for service food and the lounge. A great hidden airline.

Living the life Rory!
I Like Business Class Cabin One Oman Air.Great Trip Report
Thank you 😊
Best Business Class seat layout ever - very ingenious 2-2-2 configuration!
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! Yes it’s a great airline and their price is usually cheaper than Emirates and Qatar! Hopefully they’d fly to Australia one day!
Welcome to Malaysia my home country!
Hope you will re-drop by for a visit some time soon too.

Thank you! Wish you a Happy Easter too 😊
The Penfolds red they offer sells for well over AUD$120. An excellent video which I thoroughly enjoyed. Good editing and a clear camera.
Its a long time since I have seen "hot" steaming coffee served on a aircraft - great vid Rory

Thanks for the review. The highlight was the snoring sound effect at around 5.22. Well done.

@@RoryDing 😳😭No satay, my heart is hurt
😂
I know
I was looking forward to those too!!
I had plenty of satay in Singapore early this month tho! 😂
Another fantastic review. Thanks Rory 👍
Wow, what an enviable flight journey on business class on Oman Air! I like this airlines, too being low key & humble, yet the service is excellent. The airline's already on my bucket list for my next trip to Saudi Arabia, a mysterious country just newly opened for tourists.
Yep I was in Saudi Arabia 3 weeks ago! It was worth a visit! Except the e visa was expensive $260 😅
Great video, thanks for sharing. Oman Air buiness class is one of my favourites, and indeed one of the best in the world ✈✈
Great video Rory. Very informative. Looking forward to the next one. Also loved the luggage.
Thank you! It was my partner’s I borrowed it from her for this trip 😁
Hi Rory, Oman is another of my favourite places, I was lucky enough to get up into the mountains, it was so beautiful ... give my love to Bali :)
Wow. That looks amazing. I didn't know much about Oman, but a quick google has made me put it on my list.
Muscat is not as modern as cities like Dubai and Doha, and the public transport is still lacking but it’s worth a visit! 😀
amazing underrated Arabic Airline, my experience with this airline was spectacular
Great to see you doing flight reviews again Roy it’s great to watch these detailed and awesome videos to give us a perspective on what the airline is like and there service.

I love Oman Air business class. Good service and food on the plane. 😍
It really is!
Excellent Rory thank you 😊👍
From Bris Aus
Thank you ☺️
What a nice, relaxing way to fly and the price can't be beat. Just a slight step up from Middle Eastern train service.😜
Thank you!
And well there are many countries in the middle east 😂
Rail service is sparse in the Middle East and Gulf. Probably the best can be found in Saudi where there's high-speed Talgo trains (on the main route).
This was great, from the bagpipes at the start, then your snore. I would fly them.😊
That was not my snore 😅 but thank you! It’s definitely a great airline and their price is usually much cheaper than Emirates and Qatar
@@RoryDing oh, and those nap seats looked great. 😆 🤣. Thanks Rory.
Nice review, only question how did you get to Oman? You missed a chance to do another review. The best thing about Oman Air is that it is not dry.
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. 😊
Thank you, very useful review. But in my opinion the screen looks small and too far.
the spa is complimentary???
How's those people who ignore the safety message at the end there. 😠 I've been on an aircraft when they have had to stop suddenly and those impatient people went flying on to the floor and into each other. Lol....
I think it’s pretty common in the Middle East. Everyone stands up when the plane is still taxiing! 😳
What cameras do you use to film your videos
Hi I mainly use the go pro, but sometimes also use the Sony zv-e10, a camcorder and my phone 😊
So when the crew offered you the Australian wine i take it your accent showed.

This is Dreamliner .I think your mistaken in subtitles
Hi I’m 100% certain it’s an A332, 12:22 the aircraft rego is A4O-DG.
Plus Oman air doesn’t fly the 787-9 to Kuala Lumpur 😊

20 minutes of decadent trivial nonsense.

I enjoy Rory’s videos, also Trek Trendy similar reports. Perhaps the problem is yours.
