Muscat to Dhaka flight guide
Several airlines fly nonstop from Muscat International Airport (MCT) to Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka (DAC): SalamAir, US-Bangla Airlines, Oman Air and Biman Bangladesh Airlines. The 3,262 km flight takes about 4 hours 35 minutes eastbound. Most passengers are Bangladeshis working in Oman going home on leave, and seats fill early around both Eids.
SalamAir runs about 14 flights a week on OV493 and OV497 with an Airbus A321neo and 20 kg checked on a standard fare. US-Bangla flies daily, Oman Air four times a week on a Boeing 737-800 and Biman twice a week on a Boeing 777-300ER; all of them include 30 kg. Everyone gets 7 kg in the cabin.
Two of them are based in Muscat: Oman Air, the national carrier, and SalamAir, the budget airline. That matters if a delay or rebooking means dealing with a ticket office in Oman. Since Oman Air joined oneworld on 30 June 2025, its flights can earn miles in its own Sindbad scheme or a partner programme in that alliance, though the cheapest fare classes may earn little.
Eid al-Fitr is expected around 9 to 11 March 2027, subject to the moon sighting, and the days just before it are when Oman's Bangladeshi workers all try to travel. Book as early as you can, or fly a week early.
Check the expiry date on your Omani residence card. If it runs out while you are at home, getting back in becomes the problem.
Mwasalat's airport buses run through the night: the A1 from Mabela and Ruwi, and route 8 between Al Mouj and Al Khuwair. A bus beats a late-night taxi fare if you travel light.
Oman runs on UTC+4 and Bangladesh on UTC+6, with no summer time in either. Tell whoever is meeting you the landing time in Bangladesh time.
Shahjalal is on Dhaka's northern edge, and relatives meeting the flight wait outside the terminal. Terminal 3 has been partly inaugurated but is closed to passengers until a soft opening planned for 16 December 2026; full operations are expected in March or April 2027. Uber and Pathao pick up at arrivals, and a prepaid taxi booth outside the international exit fixes the fare before the trip; keep the slip until you arrive.
The toll expressway's 11.5 km Airport to Farmgate section has been open since September 2023, joined at Kawla just south of the terminal, and the toll is small compared with the time saved at peak hours. MRT Line 6 runs from Uttara North to Motijheel, with the extension to Kamalapur station scheduled for 1 January 2027; until then, finish the last stretch to the railway station by rickshaw or CNG.
For Rajshahi or Saidpur, the separate single-storey Domestic Terminal sits next to the international building. After immigration and customs, collect your bags, walk across and check in again unless the airline has confirmed a through ticket.
July is Dhaka's wettest month at about 391 mm, and roughly 87% of the yearly rain falls between May and October, so summer leave means heavy afternoon downpours and waterlogged streets.
Four airlines operate direct flights from Muscat (MCT) to Dhaka (DAC). The flight takes about 4h 45m.

Booking
As early as you can. Eid al-Fitr is expected around 9 to 11 March 2027, subject to the moon sighting, and the days just before it are when Oman's Bangladeshi workers all try to travel. Flying a week early, or returning after the holiday, usually means more choice of seats.
Getting there
Yes. Oman Air's own scheme is Sindbad, and since the airline joined oneworld on 30 June 2025 you can also credit the trip to a partner programme in that alliance. Check the fare class on your ticket, as the cheapest ones may earn little.
Yes. Mwasalat's airport services keep running through the night: the A1 from Mabela and Ruwi, and route 8 between Al Mouj and Al Khuwair. A bus beats paying a late-night taxi fare if you are travelling light.
Two of them. Oman Air is the national carrier and SalamAir the budget airline, and both use Muscat as their hub. Biman and US-Bangla fly in from Bangladesh, which matters if a delay or rebooking means dealing with a ticket office in Oman.
In a separate, single-storey Domestic Terminal next to the international building. After immigration and customs, collect your bags and make your way across, then check in again unless the airline has confirmed a through ticket.
Probably not before 2027. The third terminal has been partly inaugurated but is still closed to passengers; the minister said in September 2026 that it will soft-open on 16 December 2026 and run fully from March or April 2027.
Not quite yet. MRT Line 6 runs from Uttara North to Motijheel, and the short extension on to Kamalapur is scheduled for 1 January 2027. Until then, finish the last stretch to the railway station by rickshaw or CNG.
Usually, yes. The 11.5 km Airport to Farmgate section has been open since September 2023, and drivers join it at Kawla, just south of the terminal. The toll is small compared with the time saved at peak hours.
Families & accessibility
Two hours later. Oman runs on UTC+4 and Bangladesh on UTC+6, and with no summer time in either country the gap holds all year. Tell whoever is meeting you the landing time in Bangladesh time, not Oman time.
Prices & payment
Yes. A prepaid taxi booth outside the international arrivals exit sets the fare before the trip, which saves arguing over price at night. Pay at the counter and keep the slip until you reach your destination.
General
July, averaging about 391 mm of rain. Roughly 87% of Dhaka's yearly rainfall comes between May and October, so a summer visit means short, heavy downpours and waterlogged streets on many afternoons.
