New travel destination brings personalised trip planning and exclusive experiences to the heart of Dubai's leading business district

Dubai, UAE, 1st September 2026: dnata Travel has opened the doors to its 15th retail store in the UAE at One Central, Dubai, introducing a premium new concept tailored to the evolving needs of today's travellers.

Located within one of Dubai's leading business and lifestyle destinations, the new store blends personalised travel consultancy, contemporary design and dedicated private consultation spaces. The opening marks the latest investment in dnata Travel's UAE retail network, supporting continued demand for expert-led trip planning and bespoke travel experiences.

Designed to serve both One Central's thriving business community and leisure travellers, the store offers customers access to dnata Travel's growing portfolio of premium travel services, including flights, hotels, cruises, tours, attractions, transfers and tailor-made itineraries.

Meerah Ketait, Head of Retail and Leisure UAE at dnata Travel, commented: “Travel has become increasingly personal.
