This is because of the rise in Covid-19 cases and a precautionary measure
Tighter restrictions have been adopted by the authorities for those travelling from the UK to Dubai. This comes amidst the rise of Covid-19 cases after the Omicron variant.

From a window of 72 hours, this has now been reduced to 48 hours. This also applied to travellers transiting through Dubai.
The UK has been removed from Abu Dhabi’s Green List, membership of which permits passengers to travel into the capital without having to follow quarantine procedures.
The National Emergency Crisis and Disaster Management Authority also announced a travel ban on unvaccinated citizens.
