2) If the flight is cancelled, would the hotel booking in the package still be intact?
3) Likewise if the outbound flight is cancelled, would the return flight still be preserved?

Thanks... trying to figure out options here. Family do not see Devon as a reasonable alternative to Dubai!!!
If I were you I'd cancel and get a full refund. I just landed into DXB last night; It's the start of Ramadan today, is just hitting 40 degrees with lots of humidity so why on earth would you want to come here for a holiday ??????

Devon would be Heaven and they will be begging you to go there by tomorrow afternoon!
