Muscat International (MCT) is Oman’s primary international gateway and typically functions as the country’s full-service hub, handling most long-haul and regional flights operated by Oman Air alongside several international carriers. Prices can range from budget-friendly to premium depending on season and carrier. The airport sits about 30–40 minutes (approximately 30–40 km) from Muscat city centre; taxis and ride-hailing services are the fastest option (roughly 20–30 OMR one-way), while hotel shuttles and some car-rental operators provide alternatives. Pros include modern facilities, a range of lounges and direct connectivity; cons can be the distance from central Muscat and occasional peak-time queues.
Riyadh is primarily served by King Khalid International Airport (RUH), the city’s main international hub handling most long-haul and regional flights and hosting full-service carriers alongside some low-cost operators. The airport sits about 35–40 km north of downtown Riyadh; transfer times can be roughly 30–60 minutes depending on traffic. Ground connections include taxis and ride-hailing (fares vary by distance), private shuttles, and limited bus services; a metro line to the airport is planned but not always available. RUH typically feels spacious and service-oriented, though distances between terminals can be long — a trade-off between modern facilities and transfer convenience for time-sensitive connections.
