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.

Almost a third of the Arabian Peninsula is covered by it. It spans the territories of four countries: Oman, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and the United Arab Emirates.

Oman in Ancient Times

Muslim Arabs, led by the companion of the Prophet Amr ibn al-As, conquered the region of Oman around 630 AD and made it part of the Caliphate of the Umayyads and Abbasids. They ruled Oman for an extended period from Baghdad and Damascus. This marks the dawn of Islam in Oman. Just a few decades later, the Islamic sect of Ibadism emerged, establishing independent Imamate in the interior around 900 AD. After prolonged power struggles, the authority of the Imams lost influence to the Nabhani dynasty, which managed to reunite Oman around 1180 AD. The Nabhani made Bahla their capital, but were cons...
