Dubai United Arab Emirates
Winter holiday bookings are picking up across the UAE, with travel companies reporting at least a 25 per cent rise in early reservations compared with the same period last year
Keen to make the most of the year-end break, residents are booking ahead to secure better airfares, accommodation and holiday deals.
From chasing snow in Europe and Japan to planning shorter family getaways to nearby destinations, travellers are planning to make the most of school holidays, the National Day break and New Year.
Travel experts say more holidaymakers are choosing to book early rather than leave plans to the last minute, when popular destinations may have limited availability and the best-value packages are often snapped up.
Adil Tanriverdi, CEO of Tripventura, said the company had recorded a significant increase in early winter bookings compared with the same period last year, with travellers keen to lock in their plans well in advance.
“Winter holiday bookings among UAE residents have officially picked up with remarkable strength this year. We are witnessing a 25 per cent to 30 per cent surge in early bookings compared to the exact same period last year,” he said.
“Driven by strong economic confidence in the UAE, travellers are moving away from last-minute planning — over 65 per cent of our clients have already finalised their winter itineraries weeks in advance to secure top accommodations and competitive airfares.”
Snowy escapes, shorter family breaks drive demand
The appetite for winter experiences is evident in destination choices, with UAE residents looking beyond traditional holiday spots for snowfall, festive markets and seasonal activities.
Tanriverdi said long-haul experiential travel had increased by 35 per cent, with Japan, Finland’s Lapland region, Switzerland and Georgia attracting strong interest. Shorter, budget-conscious family holidays to Oman, Türkiye and Azerbaijan account for nearly 40 per cent of the company’s holiday package volume this season.
