Emirates introduces “Do more in Dubai” promotion

Emirates Airlines and Dubai Tourism & Commerce Marketing (DTCM) Company, are offering families the chance to ‘Do More in Dubai’ this summer with great offers across the city for families with children under 12 years.

The promotion, which coincides with Dubai Summer Surprises, is available until September 30, when Dubai stores have summer sales.

Do More in Dubai covers all a traveller’s needs: flights, transfers, accommodation, shopping, activities and tours – making Dubai a unique destination without breaking the bank.

In a statement released in Accra on Thursday, Mr Richard Vaughan, Emirates Divisional Senior Vice President, Commercial Operations worldwide said Dubai had developed into a destination for all seasons.

He said Emirates had chosen its partners, DTCM, Dubai Mall and many participating hotels, to showcase the best the city has to offer.

“Emirates knows that finding a holiday destination to meet the needs of a diverse group, be it families with children or a group of friends, is challenging and has thus created this offer to make travel a little easier,” he stated.

Under the Do more in Dubai offer, up to two children under 12 years, travelling with an accompanying adult in economy class, are eligible to receive complimentary accommodation, minimum three night stay, meals in participating hotels, plus airfare discounted 50 per cent off the adult fare.

Families will have a choice of more than 70 hotels and apartments in Dubai, ranging from two- to five-star, with city or beach locations, to meet every family’s need.

Furthermore, offers at participating hotels can be extended beyond three days and will include free breakfast, lunch and dinner buffets for children, plus room taxes and service charges.

For parents, Emirates will increase its baggage allowance by 10kg per one for up to two traveling with children; making space for shopping purchases and family souvenirs from Dubai.

Emirates’ partner; Dubai Mall will enhance the exclusive Do More in Dubai packages by including free children’s access to the Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo, Sega Republic and Dubai Ice Rink at the mall, the world’s largest.

The entrance deals with some major attractions in Dubai such as the Wild Wadi Water Park, Aquaventure & Lost Chambers at Atlantis, iFLYDubai; Soccer Circus & Cite’ des Enfants at Playnation – Mirdif City Centre; and the Dubai Dolphinarium at Creek Golf Club.

The offer also covers Meet & Assist service at the Dubai airport, airport transfers, and a free Dubai City Tour & Dhow Cruise with dinner for up to two children with accompanying paying adults.

For visitors to Dubai travelling without children, the Dubai Mall discount voucher book provides one-of-a-kind experience for those still young at heart such as golfing at the Els Club in Dubailand and Arabian Ranches Golf Club and dinner along the Creek on a Bateau Dubai Dinner Cruise.

Do More in Dubai allows travellers of any age to create unique experiences across Dubai – from beach to malls, from the desert to the pinnacle of the world’s tallest building, Emirates customers will be limited only by their imaginations.

“Emirates is known for its superior service in the air and with Do More in Dubai it brings our spirit of hospitality and adventure to our passengers while on the ground. Emirates invites families with children, as well as those still young at heart, to come and experience everything our hometown has to offer this summer,” said Mr Vaughan.
