Travelers planning trips during Ramadan may find lower prices on select routes as Air Arabia is offering discounts of up to 40 percent on limited seats. The Sharjah-based carrier opened the offer for reservations made before February 25, with travel valid between March and June 2026.
The offer applies to parts of its regional and international network, depending on fare type and availability. Early planning can benefit price-sensitive travelers, as Ramadan and next spring travel are expected to change demand patterns.
Air Arabia flight discounts in Ramadan
Air Arabia, the Sharjah-based low-cost airline, has launched a special discount offer on flights during Ramadan, with prices reduced by up to 40% on selected routes for travel between March and June 2026.
This offer was announced in late February, before the holy month, which is expected to extend from mid-February to mid-March 2026.Discounted fares depend on the type of fare booked, with a basic ticket receiving smaller discounts and higher tier fares such as “Ultimate” qualifying for larger discounts. Travelers should note that the offer is valid for reservations made before February 25, and that discounted seats are limited and may sell out quickly.
Rather than aggressive announcements, these price adjustments could be seen as part of broader seasonal pricing by airlines ahead of busy travel periods such as Ramadan, spring holidays and early summer. The focus for passengers should be on planning rather than promotional hype.
The best destinations for UAE residents
Since Sharjah and Dubai are huge global hubs, the 40% discount applies to a variety of locations on the list. If you’re looking for a cultural escape, cities like Milan, Giza and Athens are seeing great availability at these discounted prices.
For those seeking nature and a cooler climate, the mountain retreats in Almaty and Tbilisi remain a top choice. Interestingly, the discount even extends to popular leisure destinations such as Phuket and the Maldives, which are often more expensive during the peak winter months. By booking during the holy month of Ramadan, a trip that would normally cost AED 2,500 can be secured for just AED 1,500, leaving more room in the budget for destination and dining experiences.
Looking forward
The Ramadan discounts come as regional airlines adjust prices ahead of Eid travel and early summer bookings. Airlines typically offer limited-time pricing windows in February to stimulate early bookings before demand surges near the holiday peak.While promotional prices such as AED 149 sound attractive, actual availability depends heavily on route popularity and timing of booking. Travelers looking for lower fares are generally advised to confirm flexible travel dates and review fare conditions before making reservations.For price-sensitive travelers planning before Ramadan or traveling after Eid, the current booking window offers a limited opportunity, but may narrow as inventory decreases.
