Emirates’ passengers looking forward to the Dubai Summer Surprises (DSS) packages will be delighted to know that weeks of fun and excitement can be theirs from as little as Lm17 per person per night sharing in a three-star hotel.
Valid from 21 June until 31 August, the packages must be booked for a minimum of three nights and offer customers a choice of 14 city and beach hotels in various price-brackets. Prices include all accommodation-related taxes and service charges and are available to all Emirates’ passengers, regardless of class of travel.
As part of the packages, customers are treated to a personalised meet-and-assist service on arrival at Dubai International Airport. They also receive an Arabian Adventures Welcome Pack including a special discount voucher booklet for Wafi City, one of Dubai’s premier malls. First and Business Class
passengers receive chauffeur-driven transfers between Dubai International Airport and the hotel.
Customers will be pleased to know that they also receive an additional 10kg free baggage allowance on return/onward flights from Dubai to accommodate all the great DSS bargain shopping they do.
For the uninitiated, Dubai Summer Surprises is the summer counterpart of the popular Dubai Shopping Festival. For ten weeks, malls take on a
carnival-like atmosphere with some of them adopting special themes. This year, each DSS event will last the whole ten weeks, unlike in the past where one week was dedicated to one event. The festival has a family emphasis, focusing on both fun and education.
Emirates’ Executive Vice President Commercial Operations Worldwide Ghaith al Ghaith said: “DSS is a rich mix of entertainment, learning for the children and great shopping for their parents. Emirates has put together some irresistible packages as part of our worldwide drive to promote Dubai and the DSS. We have been sponsoring the event since its inception in 1998, reinforcing our commitment to Dubai’s trade and tourism initiatives.”
Emirates flies to 89 destinations in more than 59 countries and currently operates five flights weekly between Malta and Dubai via Larnaca in Cyprus, on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays on the new Boeing 777-200.
