Cached-fare history: across 5 months, Nov is the cheapest for LON → AUH. Best time to be there: Nov–Mar.
Fares bottom out in November around $253 and peak in October near $352 — a $99 spread across the 5 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 8 hours outbound, on a 7-night trip — ticketed under Wizz Air, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $253 for 5,475 km each way, that works out to about $23 per 1,000 km flown. That is well under the $39 that medium-haul fares on this board typically run. Across the 25 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Abu Dhabi, this fare ranks 5th — 22% above the $207 from Vienna. It is also the 2nd cheapest of the 9 routes of similar length we watch out of London.

LON → AUH, answered.
Is $253 a good price for London to Abu Dhabi?
Only slightly. The seasonal median is around $295 round-trip and this fare is 14% under it, about $42. We do not call a drop notable until 20%, so this is an ordinary price for the route rather than a reason to hurry.
What is the cheapest month to fly from London to Abu Dhabi?
Across 5 months of cached-fare history, Nov comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Abu Dhabi are Nov–Mar — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book LON → Abu Dhabi?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 5 months of cached fares, Nov comes out lowest on this route. See /guides/what-moves-a-flight-price/ for what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from London to Abu Dhabi?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Wizz Air. Nonstop options exist on many dates at higher prices — check the live search for your exact dates.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on September 1). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
