Oman - Travel Advice for MBA Customers (3rd August 2026)
How is the conflict in the Middle East impacting trips to Oman?
Update: 3rd August 2026
We understand you might have some questions or concerns about travelling so take a look at these FAQs below:
Are trips to Oman still running?
Yes, our local host has confirmed that the areas where we operate remain calm, with minimal impact on the ground and our trips running as normal. There are also no travel restrictions in place in the regions where our trips take place.
Based on all available information, all of our future departures are scheduled to run as planned. We will, of course, continue to monitor the situation closely through the FCDO, our specialist safety partners, and our local team on the ground.
Your safety, and the safety of our local host team, is our absolute top priority.
If anything changes, we will post further updates on this page. Our customer service team are also always here to help: you can contact them on hello@muchbetteradventures.com.
Can I still book a trip to Oman?
Absolutely. However we would strongly recommend making sure you take out travel insurance which includes cancellation cover at the time of booking, just in case you end up needing to make last-minute changes to your flights.
What happens if my trip does get cancelled at short notice?
You will get a full refund, or have the option to change dates or take credit to travel on a different adventure. Regardless of which option you choose we will provide you with a document to support you making a claim for flights with your travel insurance: do ensure you have taken out cancellation cover. We recommend deferring your trip to a future departure and we have lots of dates available on the website.
What happens if the UK FCDO travel advice changes when my trip is in progress?
We receive real-time safety updates and travel advice for Oman from the UK FCDO. In addition, our local host is based in Muscat and provides us with regular updates. Your safety is our priority so in the event that the UK travel advice changes whilst your trip is in progress, then measures will be taken to comply with the advice. Your local host and their team are able to support travellers on the ground and have contingency plans for their trips. We also work with an expert security and incident management partner who is available 24/7 to offer additional support, if required.
Nb. If you are not a UK citizen, you should monitor the advice of your national government's foreign travel advisory.
If anything changes, we will post further updates on this page. Our customer service team are also always here to help: you can contact them on hello@muchbetteradventures.com.
