FT.com / Middle East - Oman Air invests for tourism growth

Last month marked the 25th anniversary of the creation of Emirates airline, then a jumped-up operation founded by Dubai to compete with Gulf Air, the regional champion.

“It was a fantastic experience,” says Peter Hill, one of six original executives who worked at Emirates for more than a decade before moving on to head Sri Lankan airways for nine years.

Now the aviation veteran has returned to the Gulf as chief executive of Oman Air, and is responsible for nurturing one of the region’s more low-profile actors.
