So, trading in frankinsence and trading by sea fleet had nothing to do with making money? Countries do not survive without trade and Oman would not be where it is today without such a history. Don't knock someone for trying to improve their market share. I have always liked the livery which is being replaced, but hope to see the new one on the 767 (yes, I know, not much chance) taking me to Oman next month.
The sea and frankinsence ... that says Oman to me!
