Cheap Flights from Muscat to Tehran — $71

Muscat International (MCT) is Oman's main international gateway and typically serves as the country's premium hub for long-haul and regional carriers, including Oman Air and several Middle Eastern and Asian airlines. Fares from MCT can be mid-to-high depending on season and carrier, while the smaller Seeb-area terminals mainly handle international traffic rather than low-cost domestic flights. The airport sits roughly 20–25 km from Muscat city centre; taxis and ride-hailing are the fastest options, usually taking 25–40 minutes and costing in the range of modest local fares, while airport shuttles and limited public buses provide cheaper alternatives with longer travel times. Pros: modern facilities, good transfer connections and comfortable lounges. Cons: peak-time queues and a longer transfer to central hotel districts for budget travelers.

Tehran is served mainly by two airports with different roles. Imam Khomeini International (IKA) is the primary international gateway and typically handles most long-haul and full-service carriers, often seen as the city’s premium airport; it lies about 45–60 km southwest of central Tehran and can take 45–75 minutes by taxi or shuttle depending on traffic, with shared airport bus services usually cheaper but slower. Mehrabad (THR) is nearer, around 8–12 km west of downtown, and mainly serves domestic and regional flights on budget and local airlines; travel times are commonly 20–40 minutes by taxi or metro connection. Travelers can expect IKA to offer broader international connectivity and larger terminal facilities, while THR often provides quicker access to the city; fares and journey times vary with traffic and service choice.
