International Connection of Omans
International Connection of Omans
Oman is one of the rising stars in the tourism industry. Therefore, the number of airlines flying to Oman has increased significantly in recent years. However, there are still relatively few direct flights to Oman. Most direct flights from Germany land in the capital muscat. From there, you can reach other places in the country, such as Salalah.
With Oman Air, you have the best chance of getting a direct flight. You can fly from Frankfurt, Munich, and Zurich to Muscat without a stopover. The flight takes about six and a half hours, while the travel time for flights with stopovers is significantly extended due to the usually several-hour layover at another airport.
If you don't have an airport nearby that offers a direct flight, you can also get to Oman with a stopover. In this case, you should pay attention to where the stop is made. If you choose British Airways, you will transfer in London. This significantly extends the travel time, as London (from Germany's perspective) is in a different direction than Oman. Emirates or Lufthansa usually make their stop in Dubai, Etihad in Abu Dhabi, and Turkish Airlines in Istanbul. All these cities are on the way to Oman, making the connecting flight relatively short.

Other types of goods were rarely imported nor considered necessary. There were no major trading ports in Oman, no serviceable airports, no infrastructure, and no modern communications technology.
