The 100th time is the charm: renowned CNN journalist Richard Quest has officially joined the “century club” — marking his 100th country visit with a special journey to the Sultanate of Oman.
Richard is CNN’s foremost international business correspondent, known for his dynamic reporting style and layered global insight. He has reported on major financial stories and built a reputation for making complex economic issues accessible and enthralling.
Known for his distinctive voice and as host of Quest Means Business and Quest’s World of Wonder, Richard explored Oman’s dramatic landscapes, rich culture, and deep-rooted traditions, culminating in an unforgettable experience atop the cliffs of Al Jabal Al Akhdhar. As usual, he explores the character of cities through the people who know them best.
“Oman was a fitting choice for number 100. Perched atop the cliffs of Al Jabal Al Akhdhar, I couldn’t think of a more beautiful place to celebrate joining the century club.” – Richard Quest
This milestone visit also includes the filming of a special Muscat episode of World of Wonder, airing this August on CNN International. Richard also moderated the keynote session titled “The Shape of Things to Come” during his visit to Muscat, further amplifying Oman’s place on the global stage.
Let’s congratulate Richard on this incredible milestone and celebrate Oman for being a beacon of heritage, hospitality, and modernity. A truly perfect choice for country #100.
