Oman Air is growing fast, and its thirsty for new destinations thus new aircrafts, or in other words more aircrafts. yes they have 787 orders, but till they come on 2013 or 2015 is a bit far. and if 777s are available in the market, then why not. they already have 5 330s from the 7 they orderd, the 6th should arrive in June and the 7th end of 2010. the word is they have 3 optional on top of the 7, and they are going for them. so i guess they should be coming in 2011.
I think Oman government is pumping loads of money to bring the airline up to a competitive state to compete with many giants in the region. and as i heard, they have a perfect product in the aircrafts.
well, wish Oman Air all the best. and hope they keep up the good work and image.
regards
