Why flight fares are going to hike 50% from India to UAE in July and August?

As reported, the months of July and August can surprisingly bring a major setback to the people who have already planned or are planning to travel to India from the UAE, because the airfares are highly expected to demonstrate a massive surge.

The reason behind it is probably that there are strong demands for travel during this summer break as it would be the very first time in the last two years when people can travel back to their own homes without any other worries or restrictions. This decline in the number of coronavirus cases, and the relaxation in restrictions have increased the demand for the tickets which are expected to increase further in the upcoming months.

Schools in the UAE are closed for the summer vacation at the end. They will be reopening only on August 29, while schools in Qatar will reopen earlier on August 14.

Airfares going north are common during school vacations. The Eid al-Adha season contributed to the spurt in passengers to India, further fuelling the ticket fare hike.

Moreover, the Eid al-Adha also falls in the very second week of July and the offices in Gulf nations will also be closed for the week ahead of this festival. This has also contributed to the heavy rush since several experts had to forgo their vacation during the past two peaks VID years. For them, school vacation and Eid al-Adha holidays coming together have provided an opportunity to visit their native places.
