Dubai Rewards Residents for Bringing in Tourists

The Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism has started a program called 'A Dubai Invite'. It asks residents to invite their friends and family to visit Dubai.

Summers are usually a slow time for tourism in the United Arab Emirates because it gets very hot.

Residents can invite friends and family to visit from July 20 to October 31. They can get benefits like hotel stays and attraction tickets.

Taxis are driving through Dubai's Marina District.

Residents can choose who they want to invite on the website to get these benefits.

Dubai is a very popular tourist destination. It gets 19.5 million visitors each year.

There was a war in the area that made people think the Gulf was not a safe place. This happened even though the UAE was not directly involved.

Iran attacked the UAE with missiles and drones. This hurt the tourism industry.

After a ceasefire, some tourists started coming back. But hotels are still mostly filled with local guests.

The Dubai government is helping businesses that are struggling. They approved a package worth over $400 million.

The government is giving hotels and restaurants exemptions from some fees. They are also reducing fines for customs violations.

In March, the Dubai authorities announced another package worth over $270 million to help businesses and families.
