Place: Dubai

Attractions: Dubai's annual shopping and entertainment extravaganza, the Dubai Shopping Festival, is round the corner and the Emirates, the key sponsor and official carrier, offers hotel packages for visitors from around the world during the month-long event.

The DSF has, over the years, grown to become the biggest shopping festival in the world. Apart from incredible shopping bargains, the event hosts the world's biggest gold raffle, the world's richest luxury car raffle and many other opportunities to win fantastic prizes. The entire city takes on a carnival-like atmosphere during this time, with plenty of entertainment and activities for the entire family.

The Global Village, the biggest draw during the DSF, will remain open for two-and-a-half months till March 31.

Package: The packages, valid from December 20, 2006 till February 2, 2007, start from U.S.$66 per person per night on a twin-sharing basis and provide customers with a choice of accommodation from a range of 18 select properties.

The packages must be booked for a minimum of three and carry the option to extend. The price includes breakfast, transfers between Dubai International Airport and the hotel by chauffeur-driven car and personalised meet-and-assist upon arrival. Customers receive a special 10 per cent discount on hotel room tariff, for booking and buying packages online at www.emirates.com.

The airline's packages are designed to take care of the customer's every need from the moment they disembark at Dubai International Airport where they receive personalised meet-and-assist, an Arabian Adventures Welcome pack.

First and Business Class passengers can even avail themselves of a free chauffeur drive from the Dubai International Airport to the hotel of one's choice.

Departure is facilitated with an additional 10kg free baggage allowance on return/onward flights from Dubai. For onward-bound passengers, stopover charges are waived.

The DSF 2006 packages are available to all Emirates passengers, regardless of class of travel.

Contact: For further details about the package, call 6683 4444 or log onto www.emirates.com
