UAE Tourism in 2022: What Can the Next Few Months Bring?

There is no better sign of post-pandemic recovery than looking at travel and tourism activity charts, as it was among the most devastated non-essential sectors during the critical months of the viral outbreak.

According to a tweet that was posted by the Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates, who is also the ruler of Dubai, Mohammed bin Rashid al-Maktoum, tourism in the UAE is nearing full recovery as it generated more than $5 billion within the first six months of 2022.

Official figures point out that hotel occupancy rates in the UAE have grown by 42% during H1 2022 compared to H1 2021, reporting more than 12 million visitors in 2022's first six months.
