Oman Air has announced the start of a new partnership with Qantas. Under the new agreement, Sinbad members will soon be able to redeem their Miles on flights with Qantas, while Qantas Frequent Flyers will be able to access the same benefits with Oman Air.
On Thursday (October 24, 2024), Oman Air announced the launch of a new loyalty partnership with Qantas, which will allow Sinbad members to redeem their Miles on Qantas operated flights to destinations across Australia, New Zealand and the South Pacific. Likewise, Qantas Frequent Flyer members will also be able to access the same benefits on Oman Air’s network. Currently the airlines have an existing interline agreement, and are adding new benefits as Oman Air prepares to join the global oneworld alliance in 2025.
In Thursday’s announcement, Oman Air’s CEO, Con Korfiatis, said,
“Our partnership with Qantas reinforces our commitment to bring even greater value and rewarding experiences to our loyalty members. This collaboration not only enhances the travel journey by offering more ways for members to redeem their hard-earned Miles, but also plays a key role in attracting Qantas’ huge membership-base to come and experience Oman. As we look towards our highly anticipated oneworld membership next year, we look forward to providing more rewards and seamless travel across all member airlines.”
Also commenting on the expanding commercial partnership, Qantas Loyalty’s CEO, Andrew Glance, added,
“We know how much our members love to use their points to book international reward seats, with record numbers redeemed in the last twelve months. Frequent Flyers also tell us that exploring new destinations is high on their priority list, so this partnership will be welcome news for members eyeing their next overseas adventure. Oman Air is an impressive airline with an expansive network, a modern fleet, and a premium offering that rivals any international carrier.”
Sinbad is Oman Air’s award-winning frequent flyer program, which allows members to spend Miles both in the air and on the ground. Membership has three tier levels, each offering a wide range of valuable benefits. Qantas Frequent Flyer has over 16 million members in Australia alone, and offers four elite tiers, including Silver, Gold, Platinum and Platinum One.
