An Indian Businessman Was The Only Passenger Aboard A Flight Back To Dubai
Bhavesh Javeri, an Indian businessman boarded an Emirates flight from India to the UAE amid the temporary flight ban, all thanks to his being a UAE Golden Visa residency holder.
UAE Golden Visas have been rolling around, especially in the last year and it’s proving to be everything it was hyped for.
The businessman was exempt from the temporary ban because he’s a Golden Visa holder
“I felt very special as I was the only person on the Emirates flight. The air hostesses applauded when I stepped into the aircraft and the pilot came out to do the public announcement since I was the only one on board.”
