Oman Air has reaffirmed its support for the initiatives of Oman’s Ministry of Social Development (MOSD).

In addition, the airline has restated its commitment to sustainable social development and has pledged to continue promoting initiatives which aim to develop and support people with special needs, those who are on low incomes and citizens who are registered in a social insurance program.

The MOSD makes the support of such people a major priority and it works to meet their needs on a daily basis. And, as part of its continuing CSR program, Oman Air has worked in close coordination with the ministry to deliver a range of projects, which provide help for these citizens to achieve their full potential.

Oman Air CEO Paul Gregorowitsch commented: “As Oman’s national airline, Oman Air is proud of its role in working with the MOSD to improve the life of our nation. Oman Air has to date expanded the range of our community initiatives. These have supported those eligible for social insurance, improved the living conditions of those who are least well off and contributed to the achievement throughout society of a rewarding and balanced life. We have also provided vital backing for a range of educational, cultural and sporting initiatives throughout the sultanate.

Khalid Abdul Wahab Al-Balushi, senior manager government relations and sustainability, stated: “Oman Air’s support for the work of the MOSD stems from its endeavors to support the community through the department of government relations and sustainability.

“We give such work the highest priority and recent initiatives have included exclusive arrangements to assist people with special needs, and who are on low incomes and require airline tickets. The tickets enable them to access treatment or education, or take part in other relevant activities,” he added.
