The average airfare of US$449 (AED1,650) makes Bangkok a well-rounded choice for an action-packed escape.

 

Operating flights from the three airports in the UAE, Air Arabia flies to more than 90 international destinations in 38 countries, with recent additions including new routes to Prague, Sochi, Krabi, Samara, Tbilisi and Almaty in Kazakhstan.
