Sorry to rain on your parade, guys, but I think the new livery is awful! It does not in any way reflect clearly, at least in the eyes of a world that may not know the subtleties of Omani culture, the Oman that I have come to love and appreciate. The old livery was easily distinguishable from most of the carriers here and had the magic khanjar. And why couldn't they retain the colours of Oman ie green, red and white? I hope there is a lot of soul searching by those who came up with it. It must have cost a pretty penny to put it together!!

On the design side, it looks fine; very pretty, in fact. But I would say that it doesn't look like what the Omani national carrier should look like.

Hi there,
Oman Airs New Logo is beautiful, however i'll miss the Omani KHANJAR flying along on the Blended Winglets. All the best as the Airline Rebrands.

when first i saw the logo.. i though it was an Olympics sign (the torch) or something like that.. i think they should have kept the red, white and green.. also the KHANJAR as that where u can find anywhere in Oman..:sad:

I like it! :ok:


For those critics who don't think the new livery has anything to do with Oman, quite on the contrary. The sea has played a crucial part in Omani history. From conquering forreign lands to the sea trade, the whole country was and is centered around it.

The khanjar was nice, but it's 90° angle doesn't blend well with the modern airline liveries that accentuate smooth curves and speed.

I like the new livery, although the Khanjar was unique and nice, it never did blend well, IMHO, with the red and green color-scheme. Even though I knew it was Oman Air, my primacy reaction always was "Coast Guard."

But maybe someone can explain to me what the flame-like swirl signifies. :confused:

OK, disregard. I guess we can refer to Oman Air as "the big smoke," "smokie", "smelly" or unless you like frankincense, "stinky"? I am sure that some will misspell it as "smoke of Frankenstein?"

I like it .. its modern, contemporary and pleasing to the eye (not so harsh to look at like the old logo) and gives the right impression of a young ambitious airline.

HI Panama,

According to the PR machine, the swirly thing is supposed to be a stylised version of smoke coming from an incense burner.

I still don't like it.

somebody wants to make money,nothing to do with oman culture:=:=:=:=

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!:)
