>>>>>>>Regarding the budget and planning for Umrah in January:<<<<<<<<
06 Oct 2024
Considering the current prices, Rs. 2 lacs per person is generally sufficient for a standard package with shared accommodation. However, if you're looking for double occupancy, you might need to opt for budget hotels. For January, though, it's difficult to predict prices accurately as they will depend on demand and supply at that time. Currently, since the new season started three months ago, the market has been relatively slow, and travel agents are offering competitive rates to avoid losses. However, if demand increases, prices may rise sharply to recover past losses, so the situation could change quickly.
|||A few suggestions:|||
>>Visa and Ticket Only Option: When the market is slow, a good strategy might be to book only the visa and flight, then look for accommodation yourself once you’re in Saudi Arabia. This way, you could potentially save some money. However, if the market picks up before your travel date, it's better to secure a full package from a travel agent in advance.
>>Self-Booking Challenges: If you decide to book accommodation yourself, keep in mind the hassle of coordinating transport. Buses may only provide pick-up and drop-off for certain hotels, meaning you might need to reach designated points for transfers between Makkah and Madinah, which can be inconvenient.
>>Booking Through Online Portals: Websites like Booking or Agoda can sometimes offer good last-minute deals if rooms are still vacant. However, these deals are usually available for short-term bookings or right before the stay date. Planning ahead with online portals can be more expensive.
Wishing you the best with your Umrah planning!
