Tips for finding the best fare
Compare all four portals
The same flight can be listed at different prices on MakeMyTrip, Cleartrip, EaseMyTrip and Yatra. FareFlow Compare puts them side by side and marks the cheapest.
Work out the price after your card offer
A bank offer that applies on one portal and not another can change which one is cheapest. FareFlow shows each offer with its minimum fare, cap and card type.
Consider nearby UAE airports
Sharjah (SHJ) is close to Dubai and has flights from Mumbai too. Compare it if your hotel is on that side of the city.
Mind the time difference
Arrival times are in Dubai time, an hour and a half behind India. A flight that lands at 13:00 is 14:30 on your Indian clock.
Check entry rules early
Visa and entry rules for Indian passport holders can change. Confirm them on the official UAE government website before you book.
Looking for a fare that is not on the portals?
Some special fares are never listed online. They are usually non-refundable, and asking is free. Ask for a special fare.
