The offer applies to passengers whose final destination is Dubai as well as travellers stopping over in the city for more than 24 hours before continuing their journey.
Located in the heart of Dubai, the hotel offers a range of luxury amenities, including award-winning restaurants, the Saray Spa, fitness facilities, an outdoor swimming pool and panoramic city views.
Dubai Offers Experiences for Every Type of Traveller
Emirates is positioning Dubai as a destination capable of catering to every travel style, whether visitors are seeking relaxation, adventure, entertainment or cultural exploration.
Travellers can visit world-famous attractions such as the Burj Khalifa, enjoy indoor entertainment venues and theme parks, explore museums and interactive galleries or take advantage of the city’s extensive dining and retail offerings.
The emirate’s diverse attractions make it a popular option for both short stopovers and extended holidays.
Customised Stopovers Through Dubai Experience
Passengers can also use Emirates’ Dubai Experience platform to create personalised itineraries tailored to their interests and length of stay.
The platform offers recommendations for visitors spending 24 or 48 hours in the city, helping travellers maximise their stopover with carefully planned sightseeing, dining and entertainment options.
The service is designed to simplify trip planning and encourage passengers to explore more of Dubai during their journey.
More Than 600 Discounts Available With My Emirates Pass
Travellers flying with Emirates this summer will also benefit from the return of the My Emirates Pass programme.
The initiative provides access to more than 600 offers across Dubai and the wider UAE, including discounts at restaurants, spas, leisure attractions, shopping destinations and entertainment venues.
Passengers can access the benefits by presenting their Emirates boarding pass, either digitally or in printed form, together with valid identification at participating locations.
The programme remains one of the airline’s most popular value-added travel benefits.
Dubai Summer Surprises Returns for 2026
The campaign coincides with the return of Dubai Summer Surprises, one of the city’s flagship seasonal events.
Running from 2 July to 30 August, the festival will feature the Beat the Heat DXB concert series, cultural activities, wellness events, family entertainment and major shopping promotions across malls and lifestyle destinations.
Organisers expect the annual event to attract visitors from across the region and international markets seeking exclusive offers and unique summer experiences.
