For all the folks wanting to find out about life in oman,all i can say is,its a great place for family .Cost of living is alot cheaper than most other gulf states,not much in terms of nightlife but we have a few little spots that will quench your thirst and fill up your tummy with great eats.As for Oman Air,flying is great,not too many layovers to look forward to if thats what you are after.Probably spend two nights away from home every month and flying hours vary from between 45 to 70 hrs a month more in some cases.Most of the flights are to India in the middle of the night and you could expect to get up to 4 or 5 a month.
More new destinations comming up with the itroduction of the new NG's to the fleet as well as the A330's in a few months.
All in all its a great little place to be,and the money is not too bad..
Hope this helps guys and gals...
