As regional tensions disrupted flight routes across parts of the Middle East, UAE telecom operator du has introduced a supportive measure for residents who are currently unable to return to the UAE. This scheme is available for UAE residents currently roaming in GCC countries.
To help people stay connected during travel uncertainty, du announced a complimentary roaming package for affected customers.
What the Free Roaming Package Includes
The temporary roaming support package offers:
- 15GB free roaming data
- Unlimited outgoing calls
- 500 incoming call minutes
- Validity: 3 days
- Available for UAE residents currently roaming in GCC countries
This package allows travellers to stay connected with family, manage flight rebookings, coordinate with embassies, and access important travel updates without worrying about roaming costs.
Why This Support Matters Right Now

Reliable mobile access helps stranded residents to:
- Receive flight rescheduling updates
- Contact airlines and embassies
- Coordinate accommodation or alternative travel plans

du’s initiative is part of a broader set of supportive steps being introduced across the UAE to assist residents affected by the current travel disruptions.
