Eid Al Fitr: Steep rise in airfares as demand soars – The National

Airfares to some of the most popular Eid destinations have doubled in the UAE, as more residents look to travel during the holiday season.

Eid Al Fitr is expected to begin on April 21 if the Moon is sighted. And with more and more Covid-19 pandemic restrictions lifting globally, more people are choosing to travel.

Libin Varghese, operational director of Rooh Tourism in Dubai, said that his company sold all of their Eid holiday packages at the end of last month.
