UAE readies targeted aid package to keep tourism and hospitality afloat

Abdulla bin Touq Al Marri said on 6 April that the federal government will shortly unveil a support package for tourism, hospitality and aviation businesses hit by the Iran conflict. The plan will complement Dubai’s AED 1 billion fee-deferral programme and is expected to include liquidity relief for SMEs. For corporate mobility teams this should stabilise hotel pricing and supplier solvency during a volatile travel season.
