What Is Included in Our Umrah Packages?

Every Etihad Travels Umrah package includes return flights, accommodation, visa support and transfers — a fully bundled UK pilgrimage arrangement. Exact inclusions are confirmed in writing on your quote and ATOL Certificate.

Return Flights from the UK

Flights are available from major UK airports including London Heathrow, London Gatwick, Manchester, Birmingham and Glasgow.

Where direct flights are not available from your airport, we arrange the most convenient connecting route.

Hotels in Makkah and Madinah

We offer 3-star to 5-star hotels in both holy cities. Our Makkah hotel guide selects properties by walking distance to Masjid al-Haram, while our Madinah hotel guide does the same for the Prophet's Mosque (Al-Masjid an-Nabawi). All distances on our quotes are approximate walking times, and your exact hotel is named and confirmed before you book. Our team helps you balance price, comfort and proximity.

Umrah Visa Support and Nusuk Guidance

We provide Umrah visa guidance and support with the eVisa application and the requirements linked to Nusuk, the official Saudi platform for pilgrim services. We prepare and check your documentation and keep the process transparent; visa approval is decided solely by the Saudi authorities. Visa support is included in every package 

Airport Transfers and Ground Transport

Packages include transfers between Jeddah or Madinah airport and your hotels, and intercity travel between Makkah and Madinah, depending on your chosen itinerary. Your quote states whether transfers are private or shared.

Guidance for First-Time Pilgrims

Our Umrah preparation guide covers practical advice on Ihram, the Miqat, travel preparation, packing and the key steps of Umrah, so first-time pilgrims can travel with confidence.

UK Departure Airports and Flight Routes

Direct flights to Jeddah for Umrah operate from London Heathrow, Manchester and Birmingham, taking approximately 6.5–7 hours. Pilgrims departing from Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Bradford, Leicester, Belfast, Liverpool and other UK cities travel via convenient connecting flights, and we compare routes and airlines to find the option that suits your dates and budget. There are no non-stop flights from the UK to Madinah; pilgrims typically fly into Jeddah.

Most packages include return flights, flexible airline choices based on budget and availability, and both group and individual booking options.

When Is the Best Time to Book Umrah from the UK?

Timing affects price, availability and comfort. The most popular periods for UK pilgrims are Ramadan and the December school holidays; the lowest prices are usually found off-peak.

Ramadan Umrah Packages

Ramadan is the most in-demand period, as many pilgrims seek the spiritual merit associated with Umrah performed during the holy month. Flights and hotels for Ramadan Umrah packages sell quickly and prices rise, so booking three to six months ahead is strongly recommended. 

December Umrah Packages

Our December Umrah packages are popular with UK families, thanks to the school holiday period and cooler weather in Saudi Arabia. Booking early secures better hotel and flight options.

Off-Peak Umrah Deals

Off-peak months — typically September to November, and parts of the summer — offer more flexible flights, better hotel availability and competitive prices, making them a strong option for value-focused pilgrims. Note that Umrah is largely unavailable during the annual Hajj season, so plan around those dates.

Umrah Packages by UK City

We arrange Umrah packages from cities across the UK, including London, Manchester, Birmingham, Bradford, Glasgow, Blackburn, Leicester, Belfast, Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Liverpool. Direct Jeddah flights operate from London Heathrow, Manchester and Birmingham; all other cities are served by connecting routes. Choose your city below for local pricing and departure details.

FAQ

Q1. What is the cheapest month for Umrah from the UK?

The cheapest months for Umrah from the UK are usually September to November, when flight and hotel demand is lowest and 3-star packages start from around £600 per person. Ramadan and the December school holidays are the most expensive periods; travelling just before or after them also saves money.

Q2. What is included in an Umrah package from UK?

Every Etihad Travels package includes return flights from the UK, hotels in Makkah and Madinah, Umrah visa support, airport transfers and travel guidance. Extras like meals, private transfers or Ziyarat depend on the tier you choose, and we confirm everything in writing on your quote before you book.

Q3. Do Umrah packages include the visa?

Umrah eVisa support and Nusuk guidance are included in every package. We prepare and check your documentation; visa approval itself is decided by the Saudi authorities and cannot be guaranteed by any travel company.

Q4. Which UK airports have direct flights for Umrah?

Direct flights to Jeddah operate from London Heathrow, Manchester and Birmingham, taking approximately 6.5–7 hours. Pilgrims from other UK cities, including Glasgow and Leicester, travel via connecting flights. There are no non-stop flights from the UK to Madinah.

Q5. How far are the hotels from Masjid al-Haram and the Prophet’s Mosque?

It depends on your package tier: 5-star hotels are typically a short walk from Masjid al-Haram in Makkah and the Prophet’s Mosque in Madinah, while economy hotels are further out. All distances on our quotes are approximate walking times, and your exact hotel is named before you book.

Q6. When should I book a Ramadan Umrah package from the UK?

Book three to six months before Ramadan. It is the most in-demand period of the year, so flights and hotels sell quickly and prices rise as the month approaches.

Q7. What vaccinations do I need for Umrah from the UK?

UK pilgrims are advised to hold a valid MenACWY (meningococcal) vaccination certificate. Requirements can change, so check the latest Saudi guidance and UK travel health advice (TravelHealthPro / gov.uk) before you travel.

Q8. Can I perform Umrah on a UK tourist or visit visa?

Yes — Saudi Arabia allows visitors holding a Saudi tourist eVisa or visit visa to perform Umrah, outside the Hajj season. Most UK pilgrims on our packages travel on the dedicated Umrah eVisa arranged through Nusuk, and our team advises which visa route suits your circumstances. Rules can change, so we confirm current requirements at booking.

Q9. Can elderly pilgrims or travellers with mobility needs book these packages?

Yes. We arrange hotels closer to the holy mosques, private transfers and suitable room configurations for elderly pilgrims and travellers with mobility needs — tell us your requirements at enquiry and we will tailor the package.

Payment schedules and cancellation terms are set out in our booking conditions and confirmed on your quote before you commit. Ask our team for the terms that apply to your specific package, as they vary by airline and hotel.
