Direct Flights to Oman

The flight time to Oman largely depends on your departure airport. Direct flights are available from Munich and Frankfurt to Muscat, the capital of Oman. These flights usually take about 6.5 hours. A direct flight from Cologne/Bonn to Salalah, another popular destination in Oman, takes about 8 hours.

Flights with Stopover

Not all airlines offer direct flights to Oman. Often, you need to plan a stopover at the respective airline's hub or at a partner airport. The total travel time then depends on the duration of this stopover.

A flight with a stopover in Dubai, Abu Dhabi, or Istanbul is a good choice. The layover times here are usually between one and three hours. Depending on the location of the stopover, the total flight distance may increase. This can extend the travel time to 7.5 – 11 hours.

The flight time to Oman varies depending on the departure airport and whether you choose a direct flight or a flight with a stopover. Therefore, plan your trip well and consider the various options to find the best flight connection for you.

However, in recent years, the importance of other sectors of the economy has also been understood, and efforts have been made to promote them further. Thus, the tourism industry, industrial enterprises in general, and agriculture have also become important components of the domestic economy, even though the sale of oil and gas still accounts for around 80% of the government's revenue.

The Arabian oryx belongs to the subfamily of horse antelopes and is a distinct genus. Its natural habitat is traditionally found in semi-arid and arid landscapes, such as the Arabian Peninsula. Thus, Oman is also part of its natural habitat. In places where the sun shines year-round and it often exceeds 30 degrees even in winter, the Arabian oryx is native. Characteristic of both sexes are its very light, almost white coat and its spiral, slightly curved horns. The shoulder or body height is about 80-100 cm, while the horn length usually measures 50-70 cm. Another feature is the dark brown an...

The market of Nizwa is definitely worth a visit. You are most likely to get an impression of the life and hustle of an Arabic souq if you visit the market in the morning hours. The area where the various market sections are located is well-organized, but still offers a great variety of goods and offers. The souq, located to the east of Nizwa Fort, is completely surrounded by a wall and thus clearly distinguishes itself from the other districts. The market is divided into six areas.
