“Demand for travel, especially during the Eid holiday, is witnessing a great recovery in terms of arrivals to Dubai and travelers through the Emirates network,” said Adel Al Redha, Chief Operating Officer of Emirates airline. “The long Eid holiday stimulated travel to our global destinations, as the seat occupancy rate on some flights reached 100 per cent.

Top destinations preferred by UAE travellers are Cairo, London, Istanbul, Manila, Paris, Casablanca, New York and Los Angeles.

Emirates offered four tips for passengers heading for Dubai Airport:
