Oman Air close to breakeven in 2025

2025/12/08 13:55

State-backed Oman Air is reportedly close to breaking even this year and may post its first profit next year.

“We are going to hit our transformation target for 2025, which means that we should end the year significantly closer to being a breakeven company,” the airline’s chief commercial officer Mike Rutter told the Oman Daily Observer.

He said the airline’s goal in 2026 is to achieve its first-ever profit, according to the newspaper.

In October the airline laid off 1,100 staff, reducing its workforce from around 4,300 to just under 3,200.

As part of cost-saving measures, the airline disposed of its entire A330 fleet of 10 aircraft and sold two Boeing 787-8s.

In August 2023, Oman Air announced restructuring plans to reduce ongoing losses and debt accumulation. It cancelled flights to some South Asian cities in January 2024 to improve its financial performance and strengthen its position in a competitive market.

Trump to start final Fed chair interviews beginning with Kevin Warsh

Trump to start final Fed chair interviews beginning with Kevin Warsh

The post Trump to start final Fed chair interviews beginning with Kevin Warsh appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. President Donald Trump will begin the final interviews of candidates for the Federal Reserve chair this week, putting back on track the formal selection process that began this summer. “We’re going to be looking at a couple different people, but I have a pretty good idea of who I want,” Trump said Tuesday night aboard Air Force One to reporters. The interviews by Trump and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent will begin with former Fed governor Kevin Warsh on Wednesday and also include Kevin Hassett, the director of the National Economic Council, at some point, according to two sources. It restarts the process that was derailed a bit last week when interviews with candidates were abruptly canceled. Trump said recently he knew who he was going to pick to replace current Chair Jerome Powell, and prediction markets overwhelmingly believed it would be Hassett. But his possible selection received some pushback from the markets recently, especially among fixed income investors concerned Hassett would only do Trump’s bidding and keep rates too low even if inflation snaps back. So it’s unclear if these interviews are a sign Trump has changed his mind or just the final stage of the formal process. CNBC first reported in October that Trump had narrowed the candidate list down to five people. Four of those five will be part of these final interviews. The group also includes current Governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman as well as BlackRock fixed income chief Rick Rieder. The Fed will likely lower rates for a third time this year on Wednesday, but Powell, whose term as chair is up in May, is expected to strike a cautious tone at his post-meeting press conference on how much lower the central bank will go next year. The Fed’s latest forecast released in September called…
