I am a bit biased I suppose , but I think you will find the flight very enjoyable . They are using a leased A310 until they take delivery of their state-of -the-art A330s mid 2009 , but the aircraft is in great nick . IFE a bit ancient , but the service and food are very good indeed , almost old-fashioned . The on-time record is excellent and the flight to Muscat is often early to arrive. Your bags are always waiting for you by the time you it the baggage hall . Enjoy.
