From the Passport Index data (February 2026). Living in the UAE or holding a US, UK or Schengen visa can make entry easier for some passports. Rules change — always confirm on the official government site before you book. In the LifeDesk app, the visa line on the results shows your own passport.
Tips to pay less
- Open the price calendar in LifeDesk — the cheapest days are shown in green.
- Compare the airline's own site with the travel sites: the same flight can differ by a lot.

- Turn on a price alert — LifeDesk checks the route every day and tells you when it drops.
- Need the ticket for a visa file? Choose a refundable fare until the visa is approved.
