Eid Al Fitr is almost here. With many people in the UAE vaccinated, this may be the best time to finally take a getaway.
With that in mind, Emirates just announced a flash sale on flights for this Eid, which should fall on May 13, a Thursday.
The sale, however, does not just cover Eid. Bookings can be made until May 1 for Travel until September 30.
Emirates Holidays, one of Emirates’ features that allows for a full trip to be planned beyond just the flight, is offering three-night stays that could fit nicely for Eid, which includes return flights, stays in hotels, breakfast and a bonus in Skywards Miles, Emirates’ frequent flyer programme.
The cheapest of those deals starts at AED 1,849 a person.
Emirates is also working with the Dubai Health Authority to implement a new system to update and verify COVID-19 medical records, including vaccinations and PCR results.
