Dubai: The number of UAE tourist arrivals at Muscat Airport has grown 30 per cent from 23,000 in July 2008 to around 30,000 in 2010.
The emergence of Oman as a preferred destination for UAE travellers is attributed to the proximity of the countries, their extensive air links, and the sultanate's natural beauty.
The country is renowned for its pristine beaches, mountains, wadis and deserts as well as its unique calendar of festivals which draw in thousands of regional and international visitors each year.
