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.

Sea turtles and the coastal landscape of Oman have formed a symbiosis for thousands of years. These prehistoric reptiles are, however, threatened with extinction and are protected worldwide.

The approximately 2000 km long coastline of the country serves as an important site for egg-laying and thus reproduction for sea turtles. It is the most important breeding ground for sea turtles in the Indian Ocean. Of the seven species of sea turtles that live worldwide, five nest on the beaches of Oman. This ...
