This may make you see stopovers differently. Many nowadays are avoiding stopovers when traveling to other countries. Too lazy to get off and get in again, carry bags check-in again, and so on. However, Emirates and FlyDubai now give you a good reason as you can now earn air miles just by going on a stopover in Dubai.
The “Mile-a-Minute” is an offer from FlyDubai and Emirates’ loyalty program Emirates Skywards. Here, members can register to earn up to 5,000 miles whenever they go on a stopover or holiday stay in Dubai! So how does this happen? For every 1 minute spent, you earn 1 Skywards mile. This is valid between October 2021 to March 2022.
How do you join this and earn air miles?
This offer is for both existing and new Emirates Skywards members. They can avail of the offer via the official Emirates website by signing up before March 31, 2022. The offer is valid on all Emirates flight tickets purchased between August 1 and March 31, for travel between October 1 and March 31.
Is Dubai open to tourists in the first place?
Dubai has basically opened itself to international tourists last year as the United Arab Emirates celebrates its Golden Jubilee. They will also be the host for Expo 2020 from October 1, 2021, to March 31, 2022.
Its airport, Dubai International Airport, is a popular stopover for people traveling between Asia, America, Europe, Middle East, and Oceania. Emirates basically serves 120 destinations using a fleet of the superjumbo Airbus A380 and Boeing 777 fleet.
Your safety in mind
Emirates introduced a comprehensive set of safety measures in the air and on-ground to provide its passengers with the highest safety and hygiene standards at every step of the journey. Emirates has also recently introduced contactless technology to ease the customer journey through Dubai airport.
Well, we do hope in the first place that more people get the vaccine and herd immunity is achieved. We will soon be able to enjoy these travel benefits from Emirates and to say hello to the world once again.
