The launch of Zamboola comes close on the heels as the UAE tourism sector was among the least affected and fastest to recover globally. It performed well in 2020 despite the COVID-19 according to the Ministry of Economy and industry data.

“Travel is not just for tourists. For a resident, family, friends, team events, party, or wedding they are a great way to rejuvenate, destress, and celebrate. Zamboola was created for this new normal,” says Madhan Saminathan, the Founder and CEO.

The UAE recorded a 54.7% hotel occupancy in 2020 – the world’s second highest (after China) while the global rate dropped to 37% due to the pandemic.

‎Staycations and domestic tourism were the UAE’s silver lining as they are cost-effective, simple, with no visa hassles, potential flight issues, delays, quarantine vs. overseas trips.‎ It is no surprise, in 2020 the UAE’s domestic travel spending was AED 41 billion and officially ‘the year of the staycation’. A new campaign underway is set to soar this to AED 80 billion over the next few years.
