In case you’re wondering about the ticket, for a one-way ticket from Muscat to Abu Dhabi, the cost will be OMR11.5, which rounds up to AED109. Not to mention, around 23 kg of luggage is allowed in addition to the passengers carrying a handbag of up to 7 kg. This is a brilliant move, as it comes as an economical option for travelling between the two cities, especially in the midst of sky-high airfares. As people will be able to reach Muscat in just about six hours, this also includes immigration and other services. Not to mention, the journey is quite scenic as the traveller gets to see the changing landscape before their eyes while they travel between the two countries.

So, if you have also been planning to visit the country, but are worried about the hefty airfares that you might have to pay, you will soon have an economical option as a choice as well.
