LHR-AUH 22.25-08.30+1 (Fly out Thursday night arriving Friday morning)
Day in AUH. No need to apply for visa if on UK passport. (any recommendations for a day rate hotel?)
AUH-CMB-CGK 23.00-13.20+1 (depart Friday evening arriving Saturday lunchtime)
Night in CGK hotel. Can apply for visa in advance or Electronic Visa on Arrival. (any recommendations for a decent hotel for just the 1 night?)
CGK-CMB-AUH 14.25-22.00 (depart Sunday lunchtime arriving Sunday evening)
Night in AUH hotel. No need for visa. (again any hotel recommendations)
AUH-LHR 10.10-15.20 (depart Monday morning arriving Monday afternoon)

Is that understanding right? Not too risky? Any easier/cheaper ways to get 500TPs over a single weekend originating from the UK?! Thanks all
I’m doing ky first one of these in 10 days. Also flying LHR to AUH but starting in JER for a small saving an ld extra tier points. It’s also a BAH as will collect a car at AUH to drive to my day hotel.

Thats the Rose Hall. New to Hilton I understand. Looks smart and only £70 for a 9am-6pm day rate. The Conrad also offered a day rate but was a lot more than their times were 10am-4pm.

Im actually doing a double header to CGK. First time I’m at the Doubletree for 2 nights. 2nd time at the Garden Inn for 1 night. As you may have guessed, I’m a Hilton man.
