Summer is on the horizon and it’s about time we all made some plans.
While there’s, obviously, plenty still happening in Dubai during the sweltering summer months, a change of scenery can be a nice little getaway from busy modern life.
And the Etihad sale could help you out but you’ll have to be quick as there are only three days remaining to book a flight from the UAE capital to one of these 10 locations.
Deals will take you to some of the prettiest spots in Europe and Asia for less than usual.
If you book your seat by Thursday May 16 then you’ll be able to grab these discounted flights between Saturday June 1 until Monday September 30.
So, where exactly can you go? And what can you do there?
