Sunday, August 25, 2024 Cabin Design & Interiors | Up in the Air // August 2024 Oman Air is transforming its premium travel experience with the introduction of its new Business Studio, designed to meet the evolving needs of the modern traveler. This innovative cabin offering will replace the airline’s traditional First Class, aligning with the latest global consumer trends while maintaining the luxury and comfort Oman Air is known for. Recognizing the changing landscape of air travel, Oman Air has strategically developed the Business Studio to cater to a growing demand for high-end travel experiences that are both luxurious and affordable.
This new offering will be featured on the airline’s key routes, including flights to London and Bangkok. It combines spacious cabin layouts, lie-flat seats, and complimentary WiFi connectivity with a reimagined service approach, ensuring that passengers can work, connect, and relax in comfort, whether traveling for business or leisure. “Inspired by valuable guest feedback and in response to global market trends, we have refined our premium offering to deliver greater value and appeal,” said Con Korfiatis, Chief Executive Officer of Oman Air.
“The demand for traditional First Class has diminished, and after thorough analysis and benchmarking against industry standards, we decided to retire the product. This decision allows us to focus on enhancing the Business Class experience, which better aligns with the expectations of modern travelers and supports national tourism objectives, including wellness, adventure, and MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions). Furthermore, we are offering this enhanced experience at a more competitive price point.
” Oman Air’s new Business Studio is designed with the modern traveler in mind. Each seat offers an 82-inch pitch, providing ample space and privacy, complemented by privacy walls for added comfort. Passengers will enjoy a 23-inch personal screen, free WiFi connectivity, and à la carte dining, all within a cabin environment that redefines luxury in the sky.
This strategic shift underscores Oman Air’s commitment to continuously improving the passenger experience, ensuring that travelers enjoy the highest standards of comfort and convenience, while also reflecting the airline’s adaptability to the evolving demands of global air travel.
