Where is Travel Demand for the UAE Coming From?

Top Origins to the United Arab Emirates by Hotel Search Volume

When we compare which origin markets are driving travel intent into the UAE we are beginning to see more international markets taking the share of search events. Although domestic travel within the UAE continues to lead the way accounting for 62% of total hotel searches, we’ve observed a notable shift with the United Kingdom (UK) now accounting for 5.1% of total hotel searches. This is potentially related to the recent introduction of a travel corridor between the two countries. The United States (USA), Russia, and Saudia also account for 12.7% of travel intent collectively.
