Airline companies in the UAE have told Khaleej Times that they still have a healthy rate of ticket bookings, but not as much as before the global crunch unravelled. They are coming up with ‘crazy’ packages to lure tourists to the UAE.

Emirates Airlines, for instance, is offering special Dubai Shopping Festival packages to its customers who fly to or stop over in Dubai, regardless of the class of travel.

“They can choose from a wide selection of 20 hotels at highly competitive prices starting from as low as $55 (Dh200) per person per night,” Adnan Kazim, Emirates’ senior vice-president, commercial operations Gulf Middle East and Iran, told Khaleej Times recently.

Kazim said travellers could opt for a luxurious experience at Atlantis, The Palm, the renowned Jumeirah Emirates Towers or the Grand Hyatt Dubai, according to their personal preferences.

Dubai-Beirut return in economy class costs only Dh100 and in business class Dh1,800. Dubai-Karachi travellers can go in economy class for Dh50 and business class for Dh600. These packages are valid for travel till February 28. The offer ends on February 10, exclusive of taxes and surcharges…SOURCE
