Location

Salalah, Oman

Salalah International Airport is a commercial airport serving Salalah, the capital of the Dhofar Governorate in southern Oman. It is the second busiest airport in Oman after Muscat's Muscat International Airport, handling both domestic and international traffic. The airport plays a significant role during the Khareef (monsoon) season, typically from June to September, when Salalah attracts large numbers of tourists from across the Gulf region seeking its cooler, misty climate. This seasonal surge makes Salalah one of the more dynamic regional airports in the Arabian Peninsula. Salalah Airport also serves as a logistics hub given the city's proximity to the Port of Salalah, one of the largest container ports in the region. The airport supports cargo operations in addition to passenger services.
