The British Virgin Islands

The clear blue waters and chilly climate are ideal for those looking for a quiet, laid back vacation to spend their Airmiles credit on. And if you’re still up for some fun, then you can ride to the nearby islands to get a kick off their recreational activities!
Japan
While Japan remains a tourist attraction all year round, winters give its landscape a makeover that everyone needs to see at least once in their lifetime! During the chilly season and snowfall spells, Japan becomes a hotbed for skiing, snowboarding, and all other sorts of winter sports on lakes, mountains, and cities. Snow sculptures, light shows, and lantern trails are some of the highlights of the festivals that take place across the country as it experiences cold weather between -1° and 7° Celsius.
Lucerne, Switzerland
The sights of Lucerne are something straight out of a fairy tale, making it one of the dreamiest travel destinations for UAE residents. Simply set up your travel card with your bank, and designate a budget that you can manage for your trip. With this destination on your bucket list, you’ll get the most out of your winters because Lucerne is full of winter recreational activities.
You can go for winter sports such as snowshoeing, ice-fishing, or sledding, or explore the local marketplaces, festivals, spas, and eateries. It’s the ultimate winter experience in a single destination!
Hanoi, Vietnam
Don’t want your winters to be all about snows and fairy lights and hot chocolate? Well, Hanoi breaks all those conventions to offer UAE residents a totally different yet thrilling winter journey. The moderate climate means that temperatures rarely drop in single figures or negatives, so it’s a great destination for those who don’t like too much cold.
Besides, rainfall is also scarce during winters in Hanoi. Except for an occasional shower, the temperature is perfect for constant outdoor travels and explorations. You can visit Hanoi’s literary sites, architectural heritage, as well as its natural wonders at any time of the day.
The city also celebrates festivals such as Tet Festival and the Perfume Pagoda Festival during winters which are a perfect way to explore the rich and diverse Vietnamese culture.
Conclusion
If you have a travel card, then there’s really no reason you should stay back in UAE for your winter holidays. A quick escapade to any of these breathtaking destinations is not only possible, but it’s also a great way to put your travel card to the best use there is.
