It had been a long flight for Karan and he was looking forward to going to his hotel and starting his day. He, along with the rest of the passengers has just landed in Dubai , the commercial capital of not only United Arab Emirates , but of the entire Persian Gulf , after a 15 hour non-stop flight from New York City .
