With the peak summer vacation season approaching, UAE travellers are increasingly seeking nearby destinations that offer comfort, moderate weather, and affordability. In the summer of 2025, there has been a growing demand for several neighboring countries, particularly among families and individual travelers who prefer flights of less than five hours.

Tbilisi and Batumi remain among the most popular destinations, particularly due to their mild climate and affordable prices. The flight from Dubai to Tbilisi takes approximately three and a half hours, with prices starting from Dhs 1,300 for direct flights. Georgia allows travelers from the UAE to enter without a prior visa.
2. Armenia
The capital, Yerevan, attracts travelers seeking a tranquil atmosphere and rich cultural sites. The flight takes less than four hours, with an average round-trip ticket price of around Dhs 1,300. As of July I, the country allows UAE residents to enter without a visa. UAE citizens also do not require a visa.
