If you don't mind the extra cash upgrade to club class, free food and after 6pm free drinks, owt you want - we did it and it was AED 2,500 for the both of us for the whole deal, pricey but a real good time.

Wouldn't mind listening to Richard Ashcroft (The Verve) playing an acoustic set on the beach. http://sandance.ae/events/sandance-f...h-octatlantis/

yeh, im looking forward to him, as much as the dance music later on. should be a good event
looking around, they might not do a vip table for only 2 tickets. but will give them a call when i get back onshore and see.

The deal is drinks in the hotel, there's a club class lounge - I had breakfast sitting next to Graeme Sounness then we hammered the bar before gettinf down to the gig, they also had tons of staff so it never took more than a few minutes to get served, a first for Dubai.

i've just used another form of id in jumeirah hotels, such as a driving licence, and had no problems...surely this is one time when the useless id card might actually be of use...?

Re: Sandance Dubai
aye, they said they will need a colour copy of her passport emailed to them first, so we've done this, and are to bring it with us on arrival, and it will be accepted.
i was also told the same sort of thing about my hotel in Fujairah that ive booked us into for a month, and we checked in on my passport, reception people never even spoke to my partner, yet i emailed them back and forth about the situation, and they said they needed her passport.
