Dubai is one of the easiest long-haul holidays from Britain. Direct flights leave from airports across the UK, the time difference is small, and English is spoken almost everywhere. From November to March, you can count on warm sunshine while it is cold and grey at home.
It suits almost everyone. Families love the waterparks and beaches, couples come for the rooftop dining and luxury hotels, and first-time visitors enjoy the mix of modern skyline and traditional souks.
Choosing where to stay shapes your trip. Downtown puts you next to the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall, the Marina and JBR are best for the beach and restaurants, and Palm Jumeirah is home to many of the big resorts.
