Key Takeaways
UAE travelers in 2025 are doubling down on the region, with 39% choosing Middle Eastern destinations, up slightly from 37% in 2023. Amid global flight price surges and shifting visa policies, staying regional is both cost-savvy and comfort-driven.
While Western Europe slips from 27% to 22%, Southeast Asia holds steady at 22%, quietly rising as a soft power in leisure travel thanks to visa waivers, halal tourism initiatives, and a flood of UAE influencers posting from Bali to Bangkok. East Asia climbs too (15% vs. 11%), mirroring Japan and Korea’s post-COVID tourism rebound.
