Oman Air and Turkish Airlines have launched a strategic Frequent Flyer Programme (FFP) partnership to expand mileage earning opportunities and global reach for members of both carriers’ loyalty programs.

Key Highlights of the Partnership

  • Expanded Mileage Accrual Across Networks
    As of August 1, 2025, members of Turkish Airlines’ Miles&Smiles — which boasts over 21 million members — can now earn and redeem miles on Oman Air flights, including key destinations such as Muscat, Salalah, and Khasab, as well as Oman Air’s wider route network.
    Conversely, members of Oman Air’s Sindbad programme now have access to Turkish Airlines’ extensive network across Türkiye, Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and the Americas.

  • Strategic Aims
    According to Oman Air’s Chief Commercial Officer, Mike Rutter, the alliance is a vital step in enhancing the value of the Sindbad programme by connecting members to a broader global audience and enriching their overall travel experience.
    Turkish Airlines’ Chief Commercial Officer, Ahmet Olmuştur, noted that this collaboration simplifies global travel and elevates the loyalty experience for both business and leisure travelers.

What It Means for Travelers

  • Greater Flexibility and Convenience
    Loyalty members of both airlines can now earn miles seamlessly across a much larger network, unlocking new destinations and enhancing flexibility in redemption options.

  • Broader Rewards and Redemption Potential
    The expanded partnership enables earning and redeeming miles across two sizeable airline networks, paving the way for upgrades, free flights, and other value-added rewards across multiple regions.
