It’s almost here! The FIFA World Cup Qatar is officially set to kick off on November 20, and the UAE is expecting a lot of footfall in the days leading up to, and during the tournament.
Dubai is set to be the major gateway for fans headed to the region—with more people flying through Dubai than Qatar itself. In fact, Abu Dhabi and Dubai airports expect FIFA-related traffic to skyrocket this season. The country is already sold out on accommodation options in Qatar.
