Video: How to reach the new Muscat Airport

Oman’s new Muscat International Airport will officially open on March 20, an official statement from authorities said.

The first flight is scheduled to depart at 6:50pm while the first arrival is slated for 5:30pm.

Oman Airports has released a video showing directions to the New Muscat International Airport from various parts of the city. Please follow the instructions in English for easy and quick access to the airport.

The new 580,000sq.m. airport, which has five levels, is a giant leap from the existing airport, in size and technology to digitisation. What makes it unique and endearing, however, is the fact it is still a very friendly airport. “It is an airport that you can get familiar with and feel very comfortable in. It has a very friendly, a very Omani feel to it,”

After multiple runs, re-runs, trials, tests, practices, and preparations, the airport will finally open its doors to the public on March 20. “Our vision and mission is to be among the top 20 airports by 2020. This facility will help us get into that league. We have all the right ingredients for this and I am confident that we are on the right journey to achieve this vision,”
