quiner 0 #1 October 22, 2014 Aloha... Looking for anyone who's made the trip to Dubai, knows the travel regulations (inoculation?) Palm jump regs and most importantly... How to survive 10 days without the financial resources of the prince! Looks like the available route is through China.. (or perhaps Thailand) Mahalo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andym148 2 #2 October 24, 2014 Hey Buddy, You don't need any injections to come here. Its not a third world country, and Dubai is pretty flash. But saying that, its not really that expensive to eat and drink (alcohol excluded) here, you can get a full meal for less than $20/30. Bottled water cost cents, and you can spend within your means. At the Plam DZ, you need 500 jumps (this was reduced to 300 for a trial period) and you ned to do a H+P for your first jump. Other than that its just like any other DZ in the world...except with a kick ass view! Jump tickets are AED130 and i think they are pretty standard to the rest of the world? The desert is the school house, jump tickets cost AED100 and the turn round is pretty fast. For Accom, id suggest staying at the Premier Inn at Silicon Oasis as it's easy to get to the Palm and the desert DZ. It's cheap and it has a bar and restaurant and as pool on the roof. Its a 15min ride in a taxi to the Palm or you can drive if you feel up to it?At long last the light at the end of the tunell isnt an on coming train!!!

-Wildchild- 0 #8 November 7, 2014 The Winter Festival is taking place at the Desert DropZone anyway... And if you check in with them via email, they might still have accommodation on-site available (low-cost). See you there for the Boogie :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
