MUSCAT – Oman Air has advised passengers travelling via land borders to connect with flights departing from Muscat to arrive at border crossings at least 12 hours before their scheduled departure.

In a travel advisory posted on its official social media account, the airline said the recommendation comes as traffic volumes at border checkpoints remain high and processing times may be extended.

“Guests travelling via the land border to connect with flights from Muscat are strongly advised to arrive at the border crossing at least 12 hours prior to their scheduled departure, as traffic volumes remain high and processing times may be extended,” the airline said.

The advisory is aimed at ensuring passengers have sufficient time to complete border procedures and reach the airport without risking delays or missed flights.
