Hope there will not be too many DIA soon
And that we'll be able to travel someplace else as UAE. It's nice but I miss Asia x)
If it'd be cheap, for sure, but Hilton Jumeirah is 150 - 180 €/night and I have almost no benefit for being Diamond. I miss Dubai, don't get me wrong, I got in love with it 21 - 22 years ago at my first visit and I finally moved there but I relocated back in Europe when I became a father and now I'm looking at pictures with people enjoying life in UAE while I wait for the Austrian government to make the lockdown even longer. That being said, I don't think it's normal to pay 150 € a night to wait in line for an hour to be seated at a table for breakfast, 40 minutes for a coffee or any other order, etc. During the 2008 - 2009 recession the prices were under 100 $ but the services were unchanged.
