Dubai: Looking for a cheap travel deal for the upcoming Eid Al Fitr holidays? According to the latest insights from travel aggregator Skyscanner, UAE travellers plan and book their trips earlier than last year. This year, travellers began booking their international or domestic trips 3 days in advance as compared to 2024.
This trend is especially noticeable for domestic travel, where booking lead times have doubled to 42 and 52 days for two-week trips and 47 days for a month or more extended trip. This indicates a more cautious and financial mindset as travellers seek value for money, explained Ayoub El Mamoun, Travel Expert at Skyscanner.

Thatâs one way to get the best deals for the upcoming break â book early. However, here are some other trips.
Use travel comparison websites
Platforms like Skyscanner, Google Flights, and Kayak allow travellers to compare ticket prices across multiple airlines. Setting up price alerts for preferred destinations can help track fluctuations and secure tickets at the lowest possible price. Additionally, booking flights on less popular daysâsuch as midweek departuresâcan result in significant savings.
