Based in Seeb, Oman; Omanair is the largest national airline of Oman. It operates local and international commercial and commuter air travel, with a fleet of aircraft and helicopters serving all areas of its operations. The airline was established in 1970 and continues to expand in size and scope. It has recently been in talks with mobile phone companies to offer free Android applications for their customers. As part of its international expansion plan, Omanair has signed a deal with Vodafone in the UK to offer free Android applications to travelers using their phones.
To download an application from the Android Market, all that you need to do is contact the official Google Play Store and sign up. You will be given an application download link and you can click on it to download the application onto your device. The company encourages travelers to use the application while on planes so that they can check in with their social networking, checking emails or browsing the internet. It could also be used on any flight in order to make free phone calls, text messages and use Google Maps. All these features can come in handy if you are planning to take your smartphone on a long flight, which is why the company is encouraging passengers to download the application for free on their phones.
Mobile phone companies in the UK like Vodafone and Orange offer free GPRS handsets to customers in order to promote further connectivity on their network. Since Omanair uses the orange standard GPRS modem for all its planes, it makes sense for travelers to download the free GPRSroid application from the Android Market. This GPRSroid application is pre-installed on almost all smartphones sold by Omanair. You can also download any other Omanair mobile phones like the Ambience and Citizen for free from the Android Market. You may be able to download a free demo of the company's suite of smartphones like the Etrus and Xerox. Just like all the other popular Omanair mobile phones, the Ambience and Citizen phones have a native interface that is easy to use.
