Cheap Flights to Dubai

The main allure for tourists in Dubai (the city and the Emirate) is the shopping. Every January, a month long shopping festival is held, but there also some cultural attractions in the form of Heritage Village, Diving Village, and the Dubai Museum, as well as the 'city-within-a-city' - Dubai Festival City. There are also some fine examples of elaborate Islamic architecture, such as the Jumeirah Mosque. More active pursuits are also available - sailing, windsurfing, horse riding, and the contemporary water fun park.

Cheap flights to Dubai are plentiful, though prices may rise somewhat in the cooler and more comfortable months between November and April, and during festival periods and the summer school holidays. Ramadan is strictly observed in UAE and thus flights to Dubai may be cheaper during this month of fasting, which varies from year to year, as it becomes illegal (and insulting) to smoke, drink, or eat in public from sunrise to sunset.

From the UK, Dubai flights take around six hours unless your flight includes a stop, which can mean a total flight time of around eight hours. Comparing Dubai flight prices online will help you to secure cheaper deals.
