Weitere 400 fliegen von Dubai nach Dublin, da der Oman-Charter für 800 Euro schutzbedürftigen Passagieren Vorrang einräumt

Sounds like the teaching crisis is over

There is absolutely no logic there. They are saying that they are bringing in stranded passengers. I am not very knowledgable about flight prices to Dubai, but for 800 I can get two return tickets to LAX off season.

Also, why make people pay at all, and if so, why not charge kids on the flights? This seems to me they were really trying to predict public reaction and did not have enough time to think about it. They were like „we cannot do it for free, they will say that we are subsidizing holidays, but we cannot charge kids, they will say we are penalizing parents“.

Also, I just googled there is no school break right now, so what are the kids doing in Dubai in the first place?

Hard to be smug about it given the circumstances they all find themselves in but the bad part of me is a bit delighted that they are finally having to confront that Dubai isn’t a great place to be
