UK to UAE travel could hit all-time high as searches spike for destinations – The National

Bookings for flights from the UK to the UAE exceeded pre-pandemic levels in September, as the Emirates' removal from Britain's red list list for travel kickstarted a dash to Dubai.

Exclusive data for The National from Skycanner showed Dubai was the second most searched city destination for return travel from the UK in October, November and December 2021.

The online travel agency also saw a 2,351 per cent surge in searches for flights from the UAE to the UK last month after the UK government announced that it would simplify its travel rules.
