Word on the Street
I'd like to thank the Abu Dhabi Tourism Board for organizing such an informative webinar. Abu Dhabi is encouraging travel agencies to enroll in the Abu Dhabi Specialist programme, which I highly recommend to all agents. When you become an Abu Dhabi specialist, you feel one step ahead of the competition.

Since everyone is home-bound during COVID-19, it was a much-needed webinar that couldn't have come at a more opportune time. It will take a long time to market Abu Dhabi as a destination because, despite the fact that we have been doing Dubai and Abu Dhabi for many years, there are still many elements that are new to us.

What is the local time in Abu Dhabi?
The UAE is four hours ahead of UTC (Co-ordinated Universal Time - formerly known as GMT) and there is no daylight saving. Hence, when it is 12.00 midday in Abu Dhabi, it is 3am in New York, 8am in London, 10 am in Johannesburg, 1.30pm in New Delhi, and 6pm in Sydney (not allowing for any summer time saving in those countries).
What's the weather like in Abu Dhabi?
Abu Dhabi has a sub-tropical, arid climate. Sunny blue skies and high temperatures can be expected most of the year. Rainfall is sporadic, falling mainly in winter (November to March) and averaging 12 cms per year in most of the emirate. Rain is more common in the 'Oasis City' of Al Ain, the emirate's second largest city, due to its proximity to the Hajar mountains.

The cooler months, November to April, are the most pleasant time to visit when temperatures are around 24°C (75°F) during the day and 13°C (56°F) at night.
