Muscat’s main air gateway, Muscat International Airport (MCT), functions as Oman's primary international hub and typically handles a mix of full-service carriers and regional airlines, with Oman Air well represented. Located roughly 30–40 minutes by car from Muscat city centre (about 35 km), transfers are commonly by taxi, ride-hail or hotel shuttle; taxis can take around 30–45 minutes depending on traffic, while hotel transfers may be slightly quicker and more comfortable. A smaller coastal airport, Seeb (the former name/area), is essentially part of the same complex rather than a separate domestic alternative. Fares to the city centre can vary; taxis are usually moderate in cost for the region, whereas private transfers and rental cars are pricier but convenient. Pros: modern facilities, good connectivity and predictable services; cons: traffic can lengthen journeys to central Muscat and services at peak times may feel busy.
Nairobi is served primarily by Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (NBO), the city’s main international gateway and regional hub, and Wilson Airport (WIL), which handles many domestic, charter and bush-flight operators. NBO typically hosts full-service carriers and major regional airlines, so fares can be mid-to-high compared with smaller airports, while WIL tends to attract domestic and low-cost operators. Jomo Kenyatta lies about 15–20 km southeast of the CBD; road transfers usually take 30–60 minutes depending on traffic, with metered taxis, app-based ride services and airport shuttles as common options (fares vary). Wilson is closer to central Nairobi (roughly 5–10 km) and can be quicker by car. Pros: NBO offers extensive international connections and full passenger facilities; WIL is convenient for quick domestic hops. Cons: NBO can be busy and subject to significant traffic delays to/from the city, and WIL has more limited amenities.
Fly nonstop from Muscat to Nairobi for the quickest, most convenient way to bridge Oman and Kenya — perfect for business trips or a safari-starting getaway.
