DUBAI MYSTERY STOPOVER FAM
Welcome to the mystery....
Win a spot on Dubai’s Mystery Stopover Fam Trip 2025
20 agents. One Dubai stopover. Four mystery onward destinations. The ultimate fam trip.
It’s back! And this year, it’s bigger than ever. Will you be there?
After last year’s incredible debut, we’re giving 20 UK agents the chance to join our one-of-a-kind fam trip, starting with a dazzling four-night Dubai stopover, followed by experiencing one of four mystery onwards destinations.
So, you think you know Dubai? Think again. Over four days, winners will take a journey through Dubai with an itinerary full of jaw-dropping moments, cultural immersion, and classic Dubai experiences, all designed to discover why Dubai is the ultimate stopover and give you the knowledge and experience to sell Dubai confidently.
There’s no better way to showcase how Dubai is a getaway to so many incredible worldwide destinations than seeing it for yourself, so the lucky winners will be split into four groups, with each going onwards to one of four mystery destinations. We’ve partnered with four world-class hotel brands – Anantara, Meliá, Raffles and Taj – to showcase their Dubai properties, as well as one of their luxurious onward locations. Join our training webinars to discover some of this year’s onward locations – though we won’t be revealing all the details just yet. The mystery is in which one you could be going to, and you’ll find out on your first night in Dubai!
JOIN THE ADVENTURE

• Fly Better with Emirates to Dubai and beyond
• Soak up the sights of popular onward destinations – in pure luxury, of course.
