Things You Should Know Before Your Umrah Travel In 2021

Posted by British Hajj & Umrah Services on February 5th, 2021

With the start of the year 2021, the preparation for Hajj and Umrah 2021 has also started. In many countries, Hajj and Umrah travel was not allowed due to COVID-19. But now, most of the countries have started Hajj and Umrah travel bookings for the year 2021. People have not yet started booking Hajj 2021 packages, as they are still not sure whether the Hajj travel will be allowed at that time or not. Many people were not able to do Hajj due to the travel restrictions and cancellations last year. But by looking at the current situation, it can be said that Hajis will be able to go to their holy pilgrimage this year.

For people who are planning to do Umrah in the year 2021, they can start booking Umrah 2021 packages. As there is no fixed time for Umrah, so people can visit Mecca Medina to perform Umrah any time of the year. Most of the people might avoid doing Umrah, during Hajj, because of the crowd. There are chances of restricted travel during Hajj. That is why we suggest people plan their Umrah trip right now. It will not only allow them to do Umrah this year, but they will be able to keep themselves away from the crowd also which is quite necessary due to the current COVID situation. However, before planning your Umrah trip, here are a few things you must know.

Only Agent Bookings Are Available

If you are planning to go for Umrah trip by making your arrangements, then at present you will not be able to do so. For booking Umrah trip, you will have to contact Umrah trip agent only. At this time only agents are allowed to make bookings for Umrah Packages UK. You can connect with the Hajj and Umrah agent in your city and can check about the dates for which the Umrah Packages are available. Agents will check all your documents which are required for Umrah travel during this time of the year.

Prices For Umrah Travel Are Quite High

Unlike every year, in the year 2021, you may have to pay more for both Hajj and Umrah travel. As most of the hotels have increased their prices and only limited hotels are available for stay during Umrah. The price of international flights is also quite high. Due to this, the price of Umrah packages is more than the usual price. You can check with different agents, as Umrah travel packages price may vary from one agent to another.

Umrah Travel May Get Cancelled Anytime

Due to the spread of COVID and many countries facing lockdown, there are chances that Umrah Travel may get cancelled. In such cases, you will get your money back. However, there is no such news of the cancellation of Umrah travel at present. But we still recommend you to check about the same from your agent, so that later on you do not face any issue in getting your money back if Umrah travel gets cancelled.

We request all the people going for Umrah, that follow all the rules related to COVID-19. Ensure that you are fit to travel for Umrah, else avoid doing Umrah this year.
