My time in Abu Dhabi & 2-week stint in the UAE has come to an end. I’m en route to Muscat, Oman, somewhere I last visited back in 2008. The original plan was to bus it there, necessitating a return to Dubai, but I gladly put that idea to bed when I discovered an airline called Rotana Jet offering €50 flights to Muscat from Al Bateen Executive Airport in Abu Dhabi. That’s where I am right now waiting on the flight.

Rotana Jet. Nope, I never heard of them either but seemingly they fly a fleet of executive jets. Oh, and seat 12A is an emergency exit. So far, so good. Al Bateen Executive Airport () Abu Dhabi, UAE. April 24th, 2014.
Almost got on the wrong plane. Al Bateen Airport here in #abudhabi is more bus station less #airport #travel #dmbtravel #UAE #ttot
