Shifting vs Non-Shifting Hajj Packages – Choose What Suits You Best

Selecting the rightHajj package is an important decision, as it directly impacts comfort, convenience, and overall experience during the pilgrimage. To cater to different needs and budgets, Hajj packages are commonly offered in Shifting and Non-Shifting categories.

Understanding the difference between these two options will help pilgrims make an informed choice and prepare better for their sacred journey.

What Is a Non-Shifting Hajj Package?

A Non-Shifting Hajj Package offers fixed hotel accommodation in Makkah and Madinah throughout the entire stay. Pilgrims remain in the same hotel before and after the core Hajj days, except for the mandatory stay in Mina, Arafat, and Muzdalifah as per Hajj rituals.

Key Features of Non-Shifting Packages:

• Same hotel accommodation throughout the stay
• No hotel change before or after Hajj days
• More comfort and convenience
• Ideal for elderly pilgrims and families
• Less physical strain and luggage movement

Best For:

Pilgrims who prefer stability, comfort, and minimal movement during their journey.

What Is a Shifting Hajj Package?

A Shifting Hajj Package involves changing hotels in Makkah before and/or after the main Hajj rituals. Pilgrims usually stay in hotels located at different distances from Haram during different phases of the journey.

Key Features of Shifting Packages:

• Hotel change in Makkah before or after Hajj
• Cost-effective compared to non-shifting packages
• Accommodation as per approved Hajj arrangements
• Suitable for physically fit pilgrims
• Slightly more movement and luggage handling

Best For:

Pilgrims looking for a more economical option while still receiving all essential Hajj services.

What’s Common in Both Packages?

Regardless of whether you choose Shifting or Non-Shifting, the following services are included:

• Return Economy Class Air Ticket
• Hajj Visa & Drafts
• Hotel Stay as per selected package
• Daily Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner
• Unlimited Laundry
• Ziyarat in Makkah & Madinah
• Category B Muallim Services
• 5% GST & TCS

The spiritual experience and rituals of Hajj remain exactly the same in both options.

How to Choose the Right Package?

Choose a Non-Shifting Package if:

• You want maximum comfort
• You are traveling with elders or children
• You prefer minimal movement

Choose a Shifting Package if:

• You are budget-conscious
• You are physically fit
• You are comfortable with hotel changes
