MUSCAT: Forgot, where you have parked your car at the airport! Don’t worry, a new app can help locate your car.

The Oman Airports Management Company (OAMC) has unveiled a new app with the help of which travellers can access flight booking services through its newly updated mobile app.

In its latest update, develop- ers have added a section for news to keep travellers up-to-date with Oman airports’ news and weather forecasts for Muscat and Salalah Airports.

Users can track flight arrivals and departures informatio­n at Muscat and Salalah airports.

“The Oman Airports mobile app was developed to enhance our members’ online experience. The new applicatio­n is user friendly and provides all the informatio­n necessary to utilise the facilities at Muscat and Salalah airports,” said an OAMC official.

The app, available in English and Arabic, was recently updated as developers added new features, including the ability to scan the barcode of a boarding pass using a camera and latest informatio­n on flight timings.

Users can also experience a 360 degree Photo Sphere feature and explore the shops, restaurant­s and a myriad of concession­aires located at the airport.
