A new bus service between Sharjah and Muscat is now operational.

The passenger transport service connects Sharjah's Al Jubail Station with Al Azaiba Bus Station via the Khatmat Malaha border post.

There are four daily trips in total, with two departing from each city at 6:30 am and 4:00 pm.

A single trip costs AED 100, while it's AED 190 for a two-way journey.

Earlier this year, Sharjah's Roads and Transport Authority signed an agreement with Oman National Transport Company – Mwasalat to launch the service.
