OMAN AIR has won a unique award in recognition of the outstanding quality of its First Class and Business Class amenity kits. The airline was presented with the TravelPlus Readers Award for the Most Enduring Amenity Bags at last night’s TravelPlus Airline Amenity Bag Awards in Hamburg. The award was presented by the online magazine’s editor, Simon Ward.
The commendation comes in the wake of Oman Air’s success in the TravelPlus awards over the last two years. In January 2012, it won both the Best First Class Female Amenity Bag and the Best Business Class Unisex Amenity Bag categories, and also received a Highly Commended in the Best First Class Male Amenity Bag category.
In 2011, the airline received the Best First Class Female Amenity Bag award and came second in the Best First Class male Amenity Bag category. In the same year, Oman Air also won the Best Onboard Amenity category in recognition of its pioneering introduction of both mobile phone and wi-fi connectivity on its Airbus A330 fleet.
This year’s awards were held at a special Gala ceremony at the Radisson Blue Hotel, Hamburg, to coincide with the World Travel Catering and Onboard Services Expo (April 9-11). Oman Air’s sumptuous amenity bags offer first and business class travellers a taste of Omani luxury and are filled with a selection of top-of-the-range skin care products from the world-renowned Omani perfumery, Amouage, together with a number of essential toiletries and personal grooming items.
