Ultramodern skyline, desert adventures & luxury — with competitive fares from the US
Dubai has reinvented itself as a world-class destination, offering the tallest buildings, luxury shopping, desert safaris, and stunning beaches. Emirates' massive network means competitive fares from many US cities, and Dubai makes an excellent stopover on the way to Asia, Africa, or the Indian subcontinent.
May through September offers the cheapest flights (it's extremely hot, but everything is air-conditioned). November-March is peak season.
