Dogmatick - just stumbled across this re the opening date (20 March 2018) for Muscat's new terminal. By chance, I am in transit there (BKK MCT AUH) on 30 March. Will be interesting to check it out and also to check out the Oman Air biz lounge.

Long time lurker, first post here.
Been looking to redeem EY miles for a Y class redemption on WY > JAIPUR-MUSCAT-DUBAI
Does anyone know how EY Guest handles connection reward flights? The table mentions separate requirement miles for each.

I know the reward chart very well to and fro IN, and I would highly recommend splurging the few extra miles for J but that's just my opinion.

It's very straight forward, sum of the miles for each segment equals your total guest rewards points required. Call up Etihad guest rewards with the exact flights you want and the agent will assemble the itinerary for you. I just made a multi-leg award reward booking on Oman and the agent was super helpful.

Flew the flight already, can report that Oman Air are doing a great job with their B737s and the new terminal as MCT is pretty great too

Yes you can. As per the redemption chart on the EY website, it should run at 80,000 EY Guest miles PLUS taxes.
Make sure you time it to experience their new F

It's easy to find award space. On the website of Oman you van choose "use miles" option and you'll see if there is award space.
Booking by phone was also very easy in my opinion.

Done this a couple of times for myself and the missus. Spent 40 minutes on hold with the EY agent (in Abu Dhabi), but absolutely no hiccups. Award chart was followed as per EY website. Taxes didn't seem to match the ones priced on ITA Matrix, but always lower so not complaining!!
Very good value to be honest, and the new MCT airport just sweetens the deal! I think the Primeclass Lounge is the best PP lounge in the world currently.
