SEASONAL OCCASIONS
Eid al-Fitr
Eid mubarak
Meaning ‘festival of breaking the fast’, Eid Al‑Fitr marks the end of the holy month of Ramadan. Wish everyone ‘Eid mubarak’ or a ‘blessed celebration’ and join in on the fun.
Although each region has a unique Eid tradition, three things are common everywhere it is celebrated: spending the holiday with family, enjoying delicious meals together and exchanging gifts and sweets.
Celebrate with us and enjoy seasonal delicacies and special treats on selected flights and lounges.
