Khasab Airport
Khasab Airport (KHS) serves Khasab, the capital of Oman's Musandam Governorate, a peninsula separated from the rest of Oman by UAE territory and known for its dramatic fjord-like coastline along the Strait of Hormuz. The airport provides an important air link given Musandam's geographic isolation, connecting Khasab to Muscat via domestic flights operated by carriers like Oman Air. KHS supports both local residents and a growing tourism trade centered on Khasab's dhow cruises, snorkeling, and mountain scenery. Its strategic location near the Strait of Hormuz also gives the region geopolitical significance, though the airport itself remains a modest regional facility.
