Thanks for posting this fare. Did a 1 nt trip in CGK and was a fairly pleasant experience. The 320/321 seats are acceptable and I really enjoyed the food. I found not one but two amicable, fellow TP chasers who were on the same flights.

NB: your booking confirmation will say CGK T2 which is incorrect. UL is now in *T3*

When I went in January I arrived in and departed from T3. My upcoming booking says T2. It looks like it's a movable feast.

Hope the lounge is better in T2

one of the travelers bought their return flight on the same day this past weekend. The booking confirmation said T2, however there is no UL counter in T2. We then had to take the skytrain to T3. T3 is much newer and more modern. The lounge was perfectly ok for a contract lounge

Looks keep 1 day between is a safer way. Thanks for the info.
DXB is still there. ex-AUH is gone, expect they might file the fare again.

Uber were stopped from operating in AUH. The other way around I regularly pay 250AED-ish from JBR to Abu Dhabi with Uber.

I believe that Uber has now started again in AUH but it's a very recent thing. I haven't been in Abu Dhabi recently to check.

Wozza is right, but Uber is more expensive than meter taxis in AUH when I was there last month. You can plug AUH-DXB into your Uber app; it will cost you ~400 AED.

Uber is back, but by law they have to be more expensive than the Abu Dhabi taxis.

The advantage is not the price, but the quality of the car - they have to be a Lexus ES or better.

A friend of mine traveled out on this last week, returning the next day. He recognised all the people on his return flight, as those from the way out, so I thought I'd create a WIKI for those traveling to try and meet up.

No sign of this deal any longer from DXB or AUH on Google Flights so presumably this should be marked as a dead deal unless someone can show evidence it still is buyable

It's still showing for me. £520 ex AUH and £693 ex DXB seem to be the lowest prices, BUT you have to pick and choose your departure dates and length of stay.

E.g. https://www.google.com/flights#flt=A...;sc:b;sd:1;t:f
