UAE travellers to splash out during UK trips following Brexit vote

UAE residents are expected to upgrade hotels and entertainment plans during trips to the UK due to the slumping pound.

The value of the sterling dropped to below AED5 ($1.36) in the aftermath of the UK’s decision to leave the EU.

Despite this, an expected increase in bookings to British shores has not yet materialised, according to one online travel agent.

But UAE residents who had already booked trips to the UK are expected to splash out, said Michelle Smith of travel website Flight Centre UAE.
