Credit Card Deal
Oman Air, NBO in co-branded credit card deal
By A Staff Reporter
MUSCAT — Oman Air and National Bank of Oman (NBO), two of Oman’s national brands, have signed an agreement to offer an unparalleled service to the people of Oman.
The agreement entitles customers of NBO/Oman Air Co-Branded Credit Card to enjoy the benefits from Oman Air’s ‘Sindbad’ frequent flyers programme.
The Co-Branded Credit Card was launched by NBO and Oman Air in 2003 and enabled all the credit card holders to enjoy the special privileges of Oman Air.
Every customer who uses the NBO/Oman Air Co-Branded Credit Card will be able to convert his Money Back points into frequent flyer programme besides enjoying all other privileges.
Conversely, any NBO customer who uses this card to purchase Oman Air tickets will also earn Money Back points. The agreement was signed by Asif Redha Sabir Al Radhivi, acting head of consumer banking division, NBO; and Mohammed Mubarak Al Shikely, Oman Air’s senior marketing manager.
NBO, a premium bank in the Sultanate of Oman, issues a wide range of credit cards and offers several services such as Money Back for spend on cards, super value offers, insurance protection, flexible payment, cash access at anytime up to 100 per cent of the available credit limit anywhere in the world and co-brand cards.
NBO’s current offer on Money Back points will be more attractive because the points earned on spending on the Co-branded Credit Card can be converted into Frequent Flyer points on Oman Air’s ‘Sindbad’ programme.
All co-branded cardholders will automatically become entitled to the Sindbad membership which starts with the entry level called Green and has benefits like extra baggage allowance (on Oman Air and partner airline flights), duty free discounts, advanced seat and meal selection, personalised membership card and baggage tags.
Each Oman Air flight gives additional status miles to Sindbad members bringing them closer to Silver Status. Silver Tier entitles the member to a better and wider range of privileges such as priority waiting list, automatic seat reconfirmation, airport lounge access (on Oman Air and partner airline flights).
The next highest level for an upgrade is the Gold Card level. This card enables Sindbad members to experience Oman Air hospitality at its finest from the moment they book their flight to the very end of their journey with maximum privileges and exclusive services.
In addition, the Family Nomination Programme is one of the main attractions of the Sindbad Programme. As part of the family programme, every time the members nominate an adult family member travelling on Oman Air, they earn 100 per cent of their flown miles.
Child family members contribute 50 per cent of their flown miles to the head of the family.
Speaking on the occasion, NBO’s divisional manager, consumer banking, Asif Redha, said: This partnership between the two big brands of Oman goes back to many years and compliments each other and brings the best of both worlds to the customers. We always strive to offer innovative products to our customers.”
Mohammed Mubarak Al Shikely said: “This is yet another initiative towards our product enhancement exercise where we strive to make the entire Oman Air flying experience both enjoyable and rewarding.
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank our valued customers for their patronage and invite them to discover the rewards of travelling as a Sindbad member."
