Oman Aviation Services (OAS), the parent company of Oman Air, plans to invest $4.2 million in IT improvements at Muscat International Airport.
The four-year investment programme agreed with SITA, the aviation IT specialist, will cover all essential airport operations including check-in, flight boarding and baggage management, and will benefit all airlines using the Gulf gateway, said a Khaleej Times report.
The move also follows the creation of a new corporate identity for the national airline as it transforms itself into a world-class competitor. Last year Oman Air carried over 1,500,000 passengers to and from Muscat.
