Oman Air, the national carrier of the Sultanate of Oman, has announced the names of six employees who will be receiving the airline’s assistance to perform this year’s Hajj.

This draw, granting staff the opportunity to visit the Holy city of Mecca and to perform Hajj is in recognition of the hard work and dedication of staff, who have assisted Oman Air in achieving its remarkable progress.

In the presence of Abdulrahman Al Busaidy, Deputy CEO and Chief Commercial Officer, Asma Al Ghabshi, Executive Vice President Human Resources, and a number of involved staff, the names of the employees to be sponsored by the Company to perform Hajj (pilgrimage) this year were drawn.

Beside the six winners, a further six staff were also drawn for the waiting list. As per the guidelines, only those employees who have not performed Hajj before and have completed five years of service at Oman Air were qualified to enter the draw.

This invitation reflects Oman Air’s appreciation of the efforts of its employees; the airline considers its human resources as its greatest assets and the management expressed its delight at being able to offer this opportunity to staff.  

Oman Air is determined to ensure that the standards of recognition and incentives offered to staff match those of the airline’s award winning air and ground services.
