The eagerly-awaited new passenger terminal and the new state-of-the-art Oman Air lounge at Muscat International Airport will cater to all its business and First-Class passengers. Oman Air operates 200 flights per day from the new passenger terminal. The airport boasts of excellent facilities including 6,000 square metres of duty-free shopping, 96 check-in counters, 8,000 parking spaces and a 90-room airside hotel.

Oman Air passengers travelling in First Class and Business Class can now take advantage of the airline’s new premium class lounge offering a pre-flight oasis of calm. The beautiful interiors of the lounge have been influenced by the truly unique terrain found in Oman designed to reflect the unspoilt, natural beauty of the desert and the rugged landscape of the mountains. ‘Mashrabiya’, a traditional element of traditional Arabic architecture has been used to provide privacy in communal areas and add to the fluidity of the spacing. Spread over two storeys, the lounge offers guests a wide array of food and beverage services including dining areas and bars, luggage room, entertainment area, a smoking room, prayer rooms, business centre, kids’ room, nap area, shower facilities, babychanging facilities and a wellness area. Covering 429.35 square metres with an overall capacity of 100 people, the area designated for First Class guests offers exceptional services including a personal chef, limousine service from the lounge to the aircraft and relaxation rooms.

The opening of the new Muscat International Airport passenger terminal has been an exciting addition to the Oman Air services for its guests and the inauguration of the new premium lounge is just another example Oman Air is taking to ensure delivery of the highest level of service to its valued guests. The new terminal will allow Oman Air to offer a thoroughly enhanced service; the check-in process will be seamless for all guests and premium class guests will be able to avail themselves of designated check in areas and entrances.
