Oman Air clamps down on credit card fraud

A tightening of checks on the validity of credit card transactions is being imposed by Oman Air in a clampdown on fraud.

Passengers who use credit cards to book tickets will be required to carry the same card with them at check-in.

If a third-party card has been used for the booking and the cardholder is not present, the passenger will need to carry relevant authorisation from the person named on the card.
