12684654, Anyone cop those ULTRA LOW fares from Etihad Airways? Sub $200 RT
Posted by isaaaa, Fri Dec-26-14 01:05 AM
I got a RT from ORD to Abu Dhabi for less than $220.00, which is CRAY.

Only going for 5 days/4 nights, but that's really all I can take being around legit Arabs that long.

So they gonna just "leak" out these extra low low flights from major American cities that are all routed through Abu Dhabi during specific windows of time?

Nah, chief. They gonna be waiting for y'all at the airport with the ISIS truck.

Call me racist or whatever, but if I'mma be flying to the Middle East, I'mma do it without thousands of other Americans who are only there 'cause they got a hook-up on some tickets.

Posted by CRichMonkey, Fri Dec-26-14 01:30 AM
You wanna fuck with a plane and you want to make sure that muhfucka is filled with Americans, what do you do? Sell a bunch of tickets in America on Christmas morning at a dumb discount that doesn't make sense.

Them muhfuckas in Ukraine shot down that Malaysian plane on accident, but if you know you got flight XXX flying over Syria or Iraq or wherever and 70% of the niggas on board are American niggas (because you arranged it), now you got all kinds of opportunities to fuck some shit up.

I mean, I know muhfuckas who got absolutely no business going to Abu Dhabi posting up on IG and Facebook about how they 'bout to turn up in the desert and shit.

12684711, I'm so pissed that I missed out on this
Posted by Mahogany, Fri Dec-26-14 09:48 AM
My friend hit me up about it yesterday at like 9am. Idk what I did wrong but I could never find these magical tickets

My other friend got a roundtrip ticket to SA for $186. Wish I had knew about Google flights sooner. Just trying random dates drove me crazy. I did find one for like $450 on there later on but the price would increase every time I would try to book it. Of course somebody told me hours later that the price dropped again once you started the transaction...but who knows if that would've even worked.

The friend that told me about it got SA tickets for like $236 with a 12 hour layover in Dubai (which I'm hating on because he just came back from there lol)

Whatever I guess it wasn't meant to be. Have fun :-( #hatin

Unless you got family there what is there to do in Abu dabai that you couldnt do in any other major city in the US?

I;ve been there a few times and I dont get why everybody wants to go..

is it because somebody said it in a Rap song????
12685002, Can I ask an ignorant xenophobic question: What's in Dubai...
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Fri Dec-26-14 06:04 PM
that got ninjas wanting to go there? It can't be on that Ibiza. Seems like there wouldn't be that much to do there if you ain't filthy.

12686299, its overrated as fuck. skyscrapers, deserts,some opulent hotels
Posted by guru0509, Mon Dec-29-14 02:43 PM
get locked the fuck up for smoking a joint in the hotel room.

id rather go to vegas ANY day and ive been to dubai 6x

if you're obsessed with gold and jewelry like my fam is, i guess its cool bc of the rates, and there's good shopping there. a lot of very good looking knockoff shit, as well as the real shit.

qatar, uae, oman, bahrain all wack.

and like isa said, arabs are HELLA racist/elitist for no god damn reason.




12686380, I'm only going for 2 reasons - 3rd largest mosque on earth,
Posted by isaaaa, Mon Dec-29-14 03:23 PM

Everything else is pretty much extra-fun.

I told my wife about thi deal and it was the first quetion she asked. Why the hell would we want to go somewhere that would arrest us if we kissed in public or held hands.

Shit sounds stiff as hell.
12685962, experience another country/culture
Posted by kayru99, Mon Dec-29-14 11:24 AM

I personally love to travel, so I'll hop on a plane quick as hell.

Plus, I got mine for $177.
