Looking for the cheapest flight schedule: 1) Milan 2)??? 3)Dubai

Looking for the cheapest flight schedule: 1) Milan 2)??? 3)Dubai

I'm trying to decide where to spend January20-February 20th. At this point, I only have on option - Sri Lanka. Why only one? Well I'm flying out of Italy (Milan) around January 20th. I want to go somewhere warm. Also, I need to fly to Dubai at the end of February, so I need a destination with cheap discount flights to/from Dubai. Sri Lanka is both cheap to fly to (from Europe), and a good discount connection to Dubai afterwards.

Meridiana airlines flies Milan-Colombo for only 300euro (one way). And Air arabia flies Colombi-Dubai for only 170euro (one way).

My question is which other destination satisfies the cheap flight conditions (of leaving from Milan around January 20th, and arriving in Dubai around February 20th). So far, I only have Sri Lanka. Another one could be Kenya, but the price is doubled compared to Sri Lanka (on Meridiana airlines).

I'm looking for the best weather (Jan/Feb), greatest authentic experience, memorable/dramatic scenery, landscape photography, viewpoints, vistas, natural views, panoramas,the unique outdoors, hikes/hilltops/lookouts, and other amazing, breathtaking views?

I am a budget traveler, with limited funds. I only have about a month to spend in Sri Lanka, or an alternate destination. So where should I go?

Kai, you will probably have better luck posting on the Lonely Planet forum. You're looking for options outside Europe, which puts it beyond the scope of the Rick Steves forum. Also, the Lonely Planet forum seems more keyed to rock-bottom budget travel than this one. Good luck!!
