Muscat Airport Parking

Well its about time that something gets done on this regard, and if you don't know the history of this situation, then you can find out first hand from an avid blogger who has mentioned it a few time on his blog Muscat Mutterings (MM-you can know breath a sigh of relief)

As of the latest development there was a 'Public Annoucement' published in various newspapers and media sites announcing the new multi building parking space being constructed at Muscat International Airport.

Sound great to me, but then isn't the airport shifting location, or is my information misplaced in that it would just be "updated" in its current location? Anyone who knows the info can place it in the comments below (being lazy to look it up).

Now the question is, how would this change reflect of parking rates? Currently, the three parking areas charges vary from 300bz to 500bz for short term parking.

Oman Airport Expansion

Most of you would've witnessed the construction work going on to create the new airport, the project in itself is supposed to be completed by this year (yet to be seen).

 

What are the expecation of this new structure supposed to bring to the national carrier?

 "...capacity of 12 million passengers annually, the new terminal building will have 29 boarding air bridges, 10 bus-boarding lounges, 30 remote aircraft stands, 86 check-in counters and 20 self-service kiosks counters, a second runway with a length of 4,000 metres (the original runway will also be extended to 4,000 metres) and a cargo terminal to handle 260,000 tonnes annually" source

Sounds impressive!

I just hope that they provide ample parking to go along with all the new animity. (MM there is hope yet) I was informed through the grapevines that they are actually considering to construct multi-story level car park (parking garage) area. Wonder what the charges of such a parking facility will amount to, since as I understand it, its currently not cheap to park your caar for long durtaion of time.

Thought? Impressions?
What do you think the parking situation is going to be like?
