Abu Dhabi covers hotel extensions
In Abu Dhabi, authorities have taken additional steps to protect international visitors affected by flight cancellations.
The Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi issued a formal circular instructing hotels across the emirate to extend stays for guests unable to travel due to the current situation. The Abu Dhabi government confirmed it will cover the cost of the additional nights, ensuring travellers are not left without accommodation.
The directive reflects a coordinated effort to manage the impact of regional developments on the hospitality and aviation sectors.
Dubai hotels follow different approach
Sources indicate that while Abu Dhabi is covering extended stays, hotels in Dubai have been advised to charge guests for additional nights if their travel plans are disrupted.
The situation comes as limited flight operations gradually resume at UAE airports, amid escalating regional tensions linked to the ongoing US-Israel conflict involving Iran.
Airlines and authorities continue to urge passengers not to proceed to airports unless they have received direct confirmation from their airline regarding their flight status.
Travellers are advised to monitor official airline communications and check with their accommodation providers for updated policies as the situation evolves.
