FEATURE GULF STATES
"The 'Kids Go Free in Dubai' promotion encourages more family visits"
JULIA SPENCER assistant manager, Flight Centre “The Gulf is the answer
for guaranteed winter sun and for families who want everything easy! Dubai is the most popular but we also recommend Abu Dhabi for those who want somewhere by the beach and Oman for combined family/adventure holidays. The Shangri-La is a popular choice. Qatar Airways’ flights provide scope for stopovers or Doha add-ons.”
