DW Travel reports 34% revenue growth in 2025

UAE-based travel management firm DW Travel reported 34% revenue growth in 2025, driven by expansion across visa services, events and specialised travel segments.

 

Leisure travel remained the primary contributor, with destinations including the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Japan and Thailand among the most in demand. Japan was the leading international market based on hotel room nights booked.

 

Growth was recorded across multiple divisions, including visa services, which saw a 121% year-on-year increase in sales, while religious travel rose by more than 200%, driven by strong demand for Umrah trips to Saudi Arabia. 

 

The company’s VIP department, launched in 2023, reported a 93% increase in sales, led by private tours, chartered flights and exclusive event access.
