Paid Entry

Muscat's opulent Oman Air departure lounge — buffet, full bar, showers and slumber rooms, pay-in.

About this lounge

The Oman Air Departure Lounge is set within Muscat International's terminal, which opened in 2018, and is available on a pay-in basis to departing passengers. It's one of the more opulent lounge facilities at the airport: there's a dedicated First Class section with à la carte dining, and a Business Class zone equipped with showers, a family room, a spa and slumber rooms for resting. The food and drink offering is among the fullest at MCT, with complimentary snacks and a hot and cold buffet alongside a full bar serving soft drinks and alcohol. Because entry is sold per visit, it's open to travellers who want a premium pre-flight experience without needing a specific membership or status — a strong pay-in option for a long wait or a special departure from Muscat.
