Muslims in Malaysia can select from a range of umrah (Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca) packages at various pricing points. Depending on the accommodations provided, the packages often range from budget-friendly to luxurious.
While VVIP umrah packages do exist, some do appear more ludicrous than others. Malaysian celebrities Neelofa and her husband, Ustaz Haris are currently the talk of town after their VVIP Umrah package priced at RM35K went viral on social media.
Netizens have spoken, and it seems like half of them are defending the celebrity duo while the other half are criticising the exorbitant price of the VVIP Umrah package.
According to Omrah Travel, The VVIP Umrah package includes Saudi Airlines business class tickets, fullboard international buffet, double bed/room, and VIP bus transportation.
Do these amenities merit the price they cost? We'd love to know your thoughts!
