Oman Air to focus on digital push as part of ‘transformation’ plans

Sep 10, 2019: At the meeting with hundreds of Oman Air employees, Oman Air CEO Abdulaziz Al Raisi Al Raisi unveiled its Transformation Plan, which calls on the airline’s workers across all levels to deliver operational improvements and work with an empowered focus to deliver continuous progress.

He met the airline’s workers on Tuesday, September 3, to discuss improvement plans.

Al Raisi said the plans, established over several months with company-wide input, are thoughtful and practical, and that Oman Air’s people must meet these challenges.

The transformation plan will focus on specific matters such as fleet harmonisation, organisational restructuring and increased digital transformation.

The transformation plan also extends to Oman Air’s leaders who are committed to steer the airline to reach the planned goals by 2023, said Al Raisi, who joined the company 35 years ago as an engineering trainee in the Engineering Division.

“Our transformation plan requires major changes, which can be disruptive, but we work in an industry of constant disruption and we must be proactive,” he said.

“We have every reason to believe that all of our people will deliver the results we need.”
