On 10th March, you don't need to be at the airport until around 3pm so you will have a good opportunity for any last-minute sightseeing before your flight to Dubai. Note you have a brief stop in London and you can't avoid this (it's what makes the flight so cheap)! You then have an overnight flight to Dubai.
On 14th March you check out of the hotel but your flight home isn't until 2:25am on 15th. This means you won't need to be at the airport until around 11:30pm on 14th so you can ask for a late checkout and make your final day in Dubai a relaxing one! This gives you 4 full days in Dubai.
After leaving Dubai in the early hours on 15th you arrive into London Heathrow at 6:45am. You have another flight almost 11 hrs later from London Gatwick to Barcelona but you won't be taking this flight (unless you really want to). You will just collect any baggage and exit and Heathrow.
Flights from Barcelona to Dubai return €186.34pp total for two €372.68/£334.98
Total £765.04/£382.52pp

Won't your luggage go to Barcelona on the final flight, though?

Nope, because you have 10+ hrs between landing at Heathrow and then the flight from Gatwick to Barcelona (and it is a different airline) :wink:

That's excellent, really nice time of a year in Dubai. Thanks for sharing OP, I wish I could afford this one though.

I am trying to book the Barcelona-Dubai flight but keep getting card declined after trying 4 different cards. The guy from customer services says it's something to do with booking a Spanish destination outbound flight whilst being in the UK..help please, would love to go!

Try and use BA.com or any other booking site. Enter the flight details on Kayak or Skyscanner and you could go through an online agent.

Book on Opodo, it's even cheaper I've just saved you £20 or so!

Have you managed that ok, I was able to go all the way on Opodo and could enter card details.

Managed to book it now thank you! Had to change the country to Spain - English rather than UK - English and it worked. Shame I didn't see the Opodo post before it, but still an amazing price. All booked, thanks a lot!

Can't find the flight from Dubai back to Barc via London. I think that flight must be fully booked.

Hello, can someone tell me if I have a flight from Barcelona to Duabi, but I dont want to take the Barcelona to London leg of the journey, just London to Dubai, how would this work?

You can't do this otherwise all legs will be cancelled. You must do the Barcelona to London leg.

Hi,
Would this still be the case if there is a change of airport involved as above?
I'm sorry fr all the questions but wanting to make sure before I make a huge mistake, it would be saving me over £200 for the dates I'm looking at and due to time constraints it makes it difficult to get a flight to Barcelona first.
