When your flight to the United Arab Emirates arrives, you’ll see a place made up of seven emirates (sheikdoms), near Saudi Arabia and Iran, separated by the Persian Gulf. It is the fourth-largest oil producer in the world and one of the Middle East’s most oil-rich countries, making it one of the fastest-growing economies in the world. But tourists don’t book flights to the United Arab Emirates for oil consumption.

Most people board flights to the United Arab Emirates to bask in its beautiful landscape. Surrounded by mountains and beaches, the United Arab Emirates is a diamond in the rough of Southeast Asia. A cheap flight to the United Arab Emirates means extra money to spend in the flashy city of Dubai. The second-largest emirate in the kingdom, Dubai lures tourists with duty-free shopping and glitzy nightlife.

Flights to the United Arab Emirates are easy to come by and thanks to the renewed tourism interest in the area, the emirates are quickly becoming a destination hot-spot.

What is good to know if travelling to United Arab Emirates?

  • Al-Ain: While it’s easy to get lost in this town, Al-Ain is worth the fury. The main town of the Buaimi Oasis, it’s heavily influenced by Oman, and has much to offer. The Al-Ain Museum, for example, exhibits life before the oil rush. It also displayed Bedouin jewelry, weaponry, and instruments. Walk a little further and you’ll run into the Buraimi Souk, where fresh fruits and vegetables are for sale in open market stalls. Around the corner is the livestock souk that attracts folks from all over looking for the best sheep and goats available. Think twice about purchasing one of these furry friends: The pilot on your return United Arab Emirates flight may not be pleased with your live carry-on.
  • Diera Gold Souq: Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, but they also make for a great tourist attraction. If you’re booking flights to the United Arab Emirates with jewelry shopping in mind, the Diera Gold Souk is the ideal spot for gem-gazing. With jewels every color and size imaginable, you can find single stones, Arabian and Indian wedding necklaces, bangles, and head dresses. It’s located near Sikkat al-Khali in Dubai, just look for the wooden lattice work outside.
  • Dubai Museum: For an alternative to shops and beaches, head to the oldest building in the city, located in the Al-Fahidi Fort. Full of social and cultural history, it offers anyone booking flights to the United Arab Emirates a great chance to learn about weaponry, music, dance, commerce, and everyday life for locals. Outside, the Bedouin lifestyle is represented by the vast array of flora and fauna surrounding the grounds.
  • Liwa Oasis: Sand dunes and starry night skies are the norm for the Liwa Oasis. Now a popular weekend getaway for locals, the area also attracts vacationers booking flights to the United Arab Emirates. Beautiful horizons and grazing camels add to the scenery of village and farm lands that stretch for more than 90 miles.

United Arab Emirates airport overview

Al Ain International Airport is the smaller of two airports located in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates, roughly eight miles (18km) northwest of the resort city of Al Ain. The Al Ain Airport (also known as Matar al-Ayn ad-Dowaly Airport in Arabic) has only one terminal, one runway and an airline taxiway. At present seven airlines operate from this small airport. 

With only a few regional carriers using this modest airport (most others choose the large and glitzy Abu Dhabi International Airport instead), passengers have a limited choice of destinations. Most flights to Al Ain Airport come from regional or neighboring countries such as India, Qatar, Pakistan and Jordan.

There is a large expansion program set for this airport, which promises to include the Al Ain Aerospace Cluster – a center for economic development, technology and innovation.
