Cheap flights to Abu Dhabi
Cheap flights to Abu Dhabi bring you into the capital of the United Arab Emirates, a city of waterfront towers, long beaches and desert just past the last exit. Arrivals come from Chisinau, Krakow, Budapest, Warsaw, Katowice and Istanbul, with Wizz Air, Easyjet, Pegasus, Air Arabia Abu Dhabi and Qatar Airways among the carriers on the route. The cooler months fill first, when winter sun seekers and business travellers land at the same time.
Flights to Abu Dhabi — where from
Airports — Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi International is the airport serving the city, and it is where every flight on this page arrives. Carriers flying in include Wizz Air, Easyjet, Jet2, Pegasus, Air Arabia Abu Dhabi, Air Cairo, Royal Jordanian and Qatar Airways, so the arrivals hall mixes holiday traffic with Gulf connections. From the terminal the onward trip into the centre is by road, and that drive is the part of the journey worth planning around.
When to go
Abu Dhabi runs on a winter season: the weeks around the turn of the year are when most visitors come, when the city's exhibition and events calendar is fullest and fares climb. Summer is hot and humid, and those months are quieter. For a mix of comfortable weather and an easier fare, aim for the shoulder weeks on either side of the winter rush, and book early if your dates fall in a busy stretch.
