How To Reach Oman

Reaching Oman by Air

Oman has three major airports in Muscat, Salalah and Al Khasab. The Muscat International Airport and Salalah International Airport are the best airports as there are numerous direct and non-stop flights which operate between these airports and major countries. Oman Airline is the national airline of Oman. Major airlines of Oman are Emirates, Ethiopian Airlines and Royal Jordanian Airlines.

Reaching Oman by Bus

Regular buses run by Oman National Transport Company (ONTC) operate between Muscat and Dubai, thus connecting Oman and UAE. Dubai is also connected to other major places of Oman like Nizwa and Salalah through direct buses. Most cities of Saudi Arabia like Riyadh and Jeddah and Yemen like Sanaa and Aden are not accessible via buses. However, you can easily choose air transport.
