Holiday to Dubai? Add Sri Lanka, India or Thailand From Just £69 Extra

If you’ve got your heart set on Dubai, there’s plenty of one stop options to get you there for less than £230 – I talked about these in my last blog post.

However, if you’re flying direct with a top class airline, there’s a great way to make the most out of your money by using Dubai as a stop off.

Intrigued?

Dubai isn’t called the ‘gateway to the middle east’ for nothing – it’s a key hub for connecting flights, especially when you’re flying from the UK. Therefore, adding in an additional return flight to Sri Lanka, Thailand or India could end up only costing you an additional £69.

For example, here’s the straight forward return from London.

Thurs 5th Oct – Mon 16th Oct

So, say we wanted to spend 4 nights in Dubai to explore the city, where could we head on to next?

As our chosen airline, Emirates, flies to over 150 destinations, it means that there’s a lot of choice when it comes to adding another trip on. All you have to do is search for a ‘multi-city’ flight, which is made pretty easy by sites like Skyscanner and Kayak.

For example, if we were to add in a flight on Monday 9th October to another destination and then return back to London on Monday 16th October (which automatically would send us via Dubai), this is how much it would cost.

Phuket, Thailand +£150

And these are just a handful of options. The basic rule is ‘does the airline you’re originally flying with go anywhere else?’ If so, get searching for multi-city deals.

It’s important to note that this doesn’t necessarily mean that this would be the cheapest way of getting to that extra destination, but it does give you a great option if you were heading somewhere anyway, or wanting to do 2 destinations in 1.

Good luck with your search!
