Das Oman Air Sindbad Programm wird stark verändert …
Oman Air Sindbad ist ein kleines spannendes Programm. Status Match und ein sehr einfacher Gold Status haben das Programm vor Covid-19 sehr ausgezeichnet. Das Sammeln von Meilen war mit Oman Air Sindbad mit günstigen Business Sales, einer hohen Ausbeute und einer schönen Einlösetabelle sehr interessant.
Das ändert man. In Krisenzeiten mit weniger Interesse werden Verschlechterungen einfacher durchgesetzt.
Oman Air Sindbad stellt auf ein umsatzbasierendes Meilensammeln um.
Die Infos:
„1. What exciting new changes are in store for the Sindbad program?
Your Sindbad loyalty program is getting ready to offer you a significantly revamped spend-based program that lets you earn miles every time you spend on eligible purchases with Oman Air. We’re also changing the way you qualify for Tiers by switching to a points-based Tier system.
2. When will the revamped Sindbad program launch?
The new spend-based Sindbad program will be launched shortly.
3. Why are you making these changes?
A spend-based loyalty program lets you earn miles for every US Dollar spent with Oman Air. So the more you spend, the more Sindbad miles you earn. It’s that easy and straightforward!.
4. How will I earn Sindbad miles with the spend-based Sindbad Program?
Sindbad miles for Oman Air flights will be earned based on the ticket price rather than the distance flown. Blue, Silver and Gold members will earn 4, 5 and 6 miles for every US dollar spent on airfare and add-ons (excluding taxes). If you’re a Blue member, simply multiply your ticket fare (excluding taxes) by 4 to calculate your Sindbad miles. Or multiply by 5 for Silver, and 6 for Gold.
Example: If the fare for your Muscat to Doha Economy Lite Return ticket is OMR 185.300, then your Sindbad miles as a Blue member will be OMR 185.300 x 2.60 (currency exchange rate) = USD 481.78 x 4 = 1928 Sindbad miles as against 110 Sindbad miles based on current mileage calculation.
*Note: Ticket fare does not include fees and taxes, which are not levied by Oman Air.
5. How will the local currency fares be exchanged to US dollars (USD)?
Any ticket purchased in your local currency will be converted to US Dollars (USD) based on the IATA 5-Day Rate applicable on the day of travel. The number of Sindbad miles is calculated on this converted US Dollars (USD) amount.
6. How will the miles for each flight be calculated for a multi-flight journey?
The total Sindbad miles for you journey will be calculated on the basis of the fare paid. The prorated miles value for flights will be credited to your account after each flight is completed.
Example: If the total of OW Economy Class miles from London to Delhi (via Muscat) is 2,800, then the miles credited for the LHR-MCT flight will be 2096 and 704 for the MCT-DEL flight.
7. What will happen to my current Sindbad miles?
The balance of miles in your Sindbad account on the cut-off date will be transferred to the revamped program on a one-to-one basis. For example, if your current balance is 24,500 miles, then 24,500 miles will be transferred to the new spend-based Sindbad program.
8. How will bonus miles be calculated for Sindbad Silver and Gold tier members?
On Oman Air flights Sindbad Silver and Gold members will earn bonus miles of 25% and 50% over Blue tier members. That means Silver and Gold members will earn 5 and 6 miles for every US dollar spent on their ticket fare (excluding taxes).“

Dann wird das wohl mein letztes Jahr Gold bei WY sein. Schade, der Service und die Sitze fand ich als sehr angenehm in der C. Die Mehrwerte des Status waren marginal wenn man C geflogen ist, aber immerhin springt alle zwei Jahre bei meinem Flugprofil ein Gratis C Ticket raus.
