Airports to travel to
DXB airport is the closets to where most of you will be staying and is direct from all major UK airports. Taxi will cost approximately 150 AED.
Alternatively, please check flights to Abu Dhabi for potentially cheaper flights. It will take 1 hour 15 minutes in a taxi to where most of you will be staying and will cost approximately 250 AED.
Please use licensed taxis from the airport (from the taxi queue) Uber and Careem app’s also work but are slightly more expensive.
Recommended Airlines
Emirates: If you book now, Emirates would be our first choice. Their economy class is comfortable with reasonable leg space, and they offer the option to upgrade to premium economy. You may receive an upgrade option before your flight.
Royal Brunei: Royal Brunei is a dry flight (alcohol-free), but it’s very comfortable. They only fly on certain days, but they’re a great airline and a more affordable option.
British Airways: Reliable service with flights to DXB.
Virgin Atlantic: Virgin seems to have limited flights, but they are another good option.
Etihad Airways: Etihad flies directly to Abu Dhabi. It’s a great airline with excellent service.
Qatar Airways & Air Arabia: Both airlines offer flights to DXB, providing good service and various pricing options.
Package Holidays: Consider looking into package holidays, as they often provide cheaper flight and accommodation options. Emirates Holidays and Virgin Holidays are good places to start.
