Why stars stopped traveling to Dubai and what destination do they choose now

For many years, Dubai has been one of the favorite vacation destinations of world-famous artists, athletes, and businessmen, but recently the trend has changed. The city has become so built up and popular that now celebrities cannot feel freedom, exclusivity and privilege for a lot of money.

Due to its rapid development and new offers for less wealthy tourists, Dubai began to lose stars. The city began to be called the "new Magaluf" because the stars turned away from it when the resort became more popular. In any case, an insider told MailOnline about this.

"If you're a A-list star, Dubai is becoming a place to avoid. Only reality TV stars or retired footballers go there now, and that's probably because they are offered a free trip," the source suggested.

According to him, the stars were attracted by the feeling of an oasis in the middle of the desert, which Dubai was 10 years ago. Now, large-scale development seems to have turned the city into a typical metropolis.

There are many factors that can scare off tourists in Dubai: bans on alcohol and drugs, strict LGBTQ+ laws, and unusual religious rules often make Americans and Europeans choose other cities for their vacation.

The insider believes that celebrities are now more attracted to regions such as the Maldives and the Caribbean.
