With such a large diaspora of Indians living in the UAE, it is a yearly ritual for most families with school going children to visit their hometowns to connect with family and friends during the extended summer months of June, July and August.
It is an attractive time to visit the home country, as the mangoes and the rainy season beckon. However, a recent report in Emirates 247 brought to light that the airfares from Dubai to Indian cities like Mumbai and Delhi have already escalated for travel during the summer months. With about 140 days still to go for the vacation, it is rather surprising that the fares have gone up this quickly.
The summer vacation in Indian schools in Dubai are likely to start from June 23 and those planning to flying to Mumbai on the same day and returning a month later are finding tickets costing as high Dhs1,600 per person on Jet Airways, while the lowest price on Emirates comes to Dhs1,645 per person.
