Premium Parking

OMR 5.300 per day buys you walkable long-stay at MCT

Premium Parking at Muscat is the long-stay tier inside P2, not some separate VIP zone. You’re in the multistorey right by Terminal 1, roughly a 5‑minute walk to departures doors, so you skip the shuttle routine that comes with the remote P3 long‑term car park.

The tariff is simple: OMR 5.300 covers 3–24 hours, then it’s OMR 5.300 for each extra day. That’s only about OMR 2 more per day than P3, which sits further out as a surface lot. If you’re parking for several days and value staying on foot, the price difference stays reasonable compared with hiring a taxi both ways.

This deck is fully covered, which matters in Muscat heat that easily goes past 40°C in summer. Covered Premium Parking inside P2 keeps the cabin cooler than open-air P3 and gives you a better shot at avoiding sun fade on the dash if you’re leaving the car for a week.

Regular MCT flyers on local expat forums call P2’s premium long stay the “sweet spot” between cost and convenience, especially on trips of 3–7 days. They accept the extra ~OMR 2 per day over P3 in exchange for the 5‑minute terminal walk and not dragging bags through a remote surface lot in hot weather.

Practical tip: Head directly to P2, follow signs for “Short Term & Premium Long Stay Parking,” and snap a photo of your level and row before you walk the 5 minutes over to T1.
