Dubai’s Burj Al Arab is a sail-shaped luxury hotel on a man-made island; a symbol of opulence and a tourism powerhouse.
Dubai has launched the 'A Dubai Invite' scheme to pay residents' friends and family who visit, offering packages worth over AED 3,000 ($816). Eligible visitors must be non-UAE residents arriving on a valid tourist visa, with benefits including hotel stays, dining deals and attraction tickets. The program runs from 20 July to 31 October, with redemption until December.
