Planning a trip to Dubai? Here’s another reason to make the most of your stay. Emirates Skywards is bringing back its popular Mile-A-Minute offer, giving international visitors one bonus Skywards Mile for every minute spent in the city. And with Dubai’s outdoor season getting started, the timing couldn’t be better.

The deal is simple. Emirates Skywards members can earn one bonus Mile per minute in Dubai, up to a maximum of 7,200 Miles. That’s the equivalent of five days in the city, whether you’re here for a holiday or a stopover. To qualify, you’ll need to register for the offer and book an eligible return flight with Emirates or flydubai between October 21 and November 5, 2026, for travel between October 21 and December 13, 2026. The offer applies to all cabin classes and fare types, with a minimum stay of 24 hours and a maximum of 30 days. You’ll also need to be an Emirates Skywards member residing outside the UAE, with your return journey originating overseas.

Your earning potential doesn’t stop when you land. Members can also collect Skywards Miles on eligible stays at Atlantis The Palm, shopping at Dubai Mall and selected desert safaris and sightseeing experiences with Arabian Adventures. There’s also the Skywards Everyday app, which lets members earn Miles on eligible purchases at participating restaurants, shops and lifestyle spots across the UAE.

Put them towards Emirates or flydubai flights, upgrades, hotel stays and experiences, or use Cash + Miles to reduce the cost of a future booking.
