Um? I was under the impression that Dubai's oil revenues were not that big these days; the major income being from tourism and business?

Good to hear the restaurants etc will still be operating at least, with all respect for the late Sheikh, tourists have paid their hard-earned to come and they shouldn't have their holiday wrecked.

As for the "outrush" to BAH, I'm sure it won't be too noticable compared with the Eid "visitors" from a country much nearer
