Pakistani tourists to UAE must follow" Return Ticket Rule."
Airlines warn, one simple ticket mistake could ruin your UAE trip – avoid extra approval hassles!
Dubai: As per the rules, Pakistani tourists traveling to the UAE are required to book their return tickets with the same airline they used to reach the Emirates. This requirement, along with proof of accommodation and sufficient funds, is crucial for ensuring a smooth travel experience, as reported by the Khaleej Times.
Pakistani airlines, SereneAir, Airblue, and Fly Jinnah have cautioned passengers holding return tickets from other airlines that they may face additional checks requiring approvals from UAE authorities. To reinforce this message and prevent any complications, the airlines recommend booking both legs of the journey with the same airline.
Airlines are reminding visitors to have valid return tickets within their visa period, confirmed accommodation, and at least $500 (1,835 dirhams) in cash or a credit card.
Ambassador’s reminder
Pakistan’s ambassador to the UAE, Faisal Niaz Tirmizi, has urged Pakistanis to adhere to visa rules and refrain from seeking employment on tourist visas.
He stated, "Tourists should focus on tourism. For jobs, apply for an employment visa," as quoted by Khaleej Times.
Pakistani travelers to the UAE should remain vigilant about these updates to ensure a hassle-free journey.
