Not a wise idea to go to any Muslim country right now.
I have heard from people who have been there that Dubai is one of those places where (at least during business hours) the Muslims pretend to not be psychopaths.
I also want to know, good topic
The following is just my opinion: No Islamic country is safe for Americans especially women right now. That said, the Dubai in the UAE is probably the safest of the lot. After all, the UAE is the only Muslim nation that condemned Hamas for the attack on Israel.
They’re in Bali and they want to travel to Dubai? Isn’t that like being in Chicago and wondering if it’s safe to travel to Detroit?
“Is Dubai Safe for Americans”
Excluding the war in Israel, my answer is that Dubai is safe for Americans, as long as they don’t ‘act like Americans’.
Bali is in Indonesia which is also muslim. Advise them to come home and advoid any muslim country.
Don’t go out at night, women go nowhere alone, don’t drink, dress modestly and keep a behaved attitude.
Pretty solid plan for everywhere, minus going out at night.
Re travel advisories, see https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/traveladvisories/traveladvisories/united-arab-emirates-travel-advisory.html (not that I trust the State Department under the Biden regime).
Prayers for their safety.
I personally will not travel outside the USA any more unless a dire situation requires it.
I personally will not travel to many places in the USA now unless same reasons.
It’s getting so that I won’t frequent a place of business that forbids firearms.
I hope I never have to use my personal protection but I don’t intend to be victimized because I did not have it very close by.
Stay home.
Dubai should be OK to travel through. I wouldn’t hang out there too long. But that area is a major travel hub.
I’m concerned about our friends vacationing in Egypt right now. Haven’t heard if they cut the trip short. I imagine flights out got booked up pretty quickly.
Dubai has never been a safe place. It was just an illusion of being so.
Dubai is 110% fine to fly to.
I’m Israeli and I took my family there last year.
beautiful place
I was there in May and it was fine. you’re good. The United States is the most dangerous country I’ve ever been to. Don’t listen to all these other naysayers. Follow the rules and don’t do stupid stuff like drink and drive or steal or be overly obnoxious. Good time of year now too because its not as hot. They have a monarch named Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum and he doesn’t put up with the BS. Almost everyone is a foreign national and if you screw around they’ll deport you.
Dubai is completely safe for Americans. You’re in far more danger in your avg Dem-run USA city.
Much safer than Memphis
Just don’t aggravate their cops
You can leave your wallet on your unlocked car there
Truth is, countries like UAE and Saudi Arabia are quickly losing their patience with Palestinians, who they consider as little more than savage, illiterate bumpkins. They know they're not going to be oil-rich forever. These countries want a future with prosperous, tech-savvy Israel as a way to diversify their economies. Hence, the Benjamin Accords.
