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.
