One of the best airports in the world. Gotta love the wi-fi or lie they call it WOW-FI!
Very nice airport. Annoying sometimes when you have to walk for hours to get to your flight. But otherwise, it's huge and has all the facilities that you can ask for at an airport. Probably much more
Louie LuFebruary 3, 2017GREATEST Airport Wi-Fi. Only a simple click then you can connect to Internet, without password or any login process, wonderful.
One of the best Airports in the world 👍🏻👍🏻 Dubai exceeded our expectations as usual
Abdullah AlhamoudSeptember 11, 2016Excellent airport. Lots of food & shopping options. Make sure you have enough time before you decide to go anywhere, it's gonna take you time.
Davin ChuaDecember 10, 2016Big nice airport with free strong wifi and it is very efficiency. Also you can shop what you want in the duty free stores.- IbrahemJanuary 17, 2015All hail the greatest airport in gcc ( I haven't checked the new Doha airport yet). Try to squeeze yourself into the business lounge. 9/10
Y.Arman BarlasNovember 27, 2016Here is expected to overtake London Heathrow as the world’s largest airport by 2016,and by 2018.
Be careful with ur connecting flight timings while traveling with Emirates it should be at least 2+ hours. Reason ur first flight may land at concourse A where ur 2nd flight can be from concourse C.
Andrew ColeSeptember 13, 2014If you're looking for somewhere quiet (to sleep, stretch etc) I found a little oasis in an empty wing of the airport - includes a plug point, washrooms and drinking fountain.
Don't forget to pick the VIP taxi service instead of the normal one.. There is not much difference between them. VIP taxi is more comfortable and clean. 30 to 50 dhs is the difference. Enjoy!
Ali YahyaSeptember 20, 2014'free' WiFi for 30 minutes only then it's $4/hour *derp*. steps to 'actually' use it for free:1/ sign up with fake credentials 2/ clear your browser's history every 30 mins3/ repeat & enjoy ;)
Mike DooseOctober 9, 2023Plaza Premium Lounge in Terminal 3 A Concourse has nice free showers for Amex platinum members. Also plenty of seating and AC+USB power available throughout.
Fantastic airport. Great shopping and food (Shake Shack!). Free hotel room if you fly Emirates and have an 8+ hour layover.- Victor ChuSeptember 3, 2019The staffs are helpful but the taxi is really expensive. You can buy a silver transport card at the convenience store.
MK ChanJuly 22, 2018This is one of biggest AP as I visited, Emirates terminal is 3 and it is very big. If you need transfer at here, u had better find terminal earlier.
Try one of the airplanes while you are here. They are fun and the best thing to do at an airport!
Eamon FJanuary 20, 2015One of the best airports I've been to. Lots to look at while waiting for flights, very quick to transfer between planes and terminals - very well planned
Aika BarzhaxynovaJanuary 1, 2017Check-in line can be long even 2.5 hours before your flight. A3 Gate doesn't let you bring in a cup of coffee even if you bought it from gate area, all drinks you buy must be sealed b4 entering A3.
Melis ÇağlarMay 3It is quite big but not fascinating. In every floor and in each section they have duty free shops. Just use self check in if you want to save some time for shopping.
A great airport but sometimes the long walk is unnecessary. Always make sure your connecting flight is 2hrs apart.
Make sure you arrive 2 hrs before. The que might be long to enter the airport + the security screening.The distance from the check-in point to the gates terminal is quite far.Arrive early to enjoy it!
Daniel RoyJanuary 21, 2016The airport has three gate areas, A to C. Check the boards for transit times. Most of the shops are present in all three areas so no need to worry about missing shopping.
Fast and efficient. Good experience always. Airport looks like a mall ... stunning! Check out the electronics store unless you're going into Dubai (prices are better).
Janneke BoekhorstJune 2, 2019Nice and quit airport. Enough food and shops. Also Amercian fastfood restaurants like McDonalds, KFC and Krispy Cream
Mohamed Morsi l 👻 Dr_morsica lJanuary 9, 2015Get ready for excellence, also for long walk .. Try to have the elevator instead of escalator 😅.. Enjoy the stay
Oisín SMarch 31, 2018Bit of a niche tip, but if you’re on a connecting flight, the waiting area between the elevators and the train to the B and C Gates has the best toilets. Located next to the Costa, nobody there/no Q
Kristina KryzovaMarch 24, 2015Of you ho to Marina (jumeirah beach residences) take a metro Red line :10,5 AED per person.. You will see all sights from the window ;)
Rashid Al-MaimanyApril 12, 2018For terminal 1 Arrive at least 45 min before boarding time if you boarding pass and 2 hours if without. The walking distance from drop off till check in is a lot with metro transfer and all.
MidiaSeptember 6, 2016A very big terminal so many free shops the prices r fair, if u wanna drink alcoholic drink u should buy it here because at dubai there is no shop for alchol drinks
Parmis AhmadiMay 31, 2023The best and largest airport in the Middle East with free and high-speed internet👌🏻
MariusJune 27, 2015Delete your cookies after one hour free wifi and enjoy free wifi as long as you want ;)
Islam FetouhApril 9, 2015I love this airport. Lounges are nice. Duty free is wonderful. Also they have few calls in order to deduct noise. Perfect for flight connections.
Superb great architecture & beautiful spacious airport.
Huge and beautiful airport, check in is very far from the gate, pace yourself and leave ample time to window shop and buy last minute stuff
For long layovers, If you want a bath, there's a shower room near the A gates near sleep n' fly beside the coffee shop, you just need to bring your own towels and toiletries.
Jon DarveauDecember 25, 2014If you have a long layover and can get through customs in a reasonable time, the metro station is here and can take you into the city for some sightseeing- GigaApril 14, 2015Enjoy your free 30 minutes of Internet. If you need more, buy something and get your WiFi code at Costa Coffee :)
Best wifi I had here so far is at Jack's Bar & Grill around A16. You don't have to order a JD though to get the generated code - they also have coffee ;-)
Book Marhaba service if you want quicker departure access through bag drop, immigration. Costs a little bit extra but worth it.
For me the best airport in the world! If you can get an e-gate card. It will save you the queues when you arrive or leave immigration.
Dushinka SubramaniamJuly 25, 2018The baby rooms here are very good! Best to knock on them as the baby room was full of staff from makeup or jewellery counters having a break
It's easy to spend your time in this big and friendly airport - plenty of duty free shops and restaurants. Love the new terminal.
Dmitry IvashchenkoJuly 29, 2015Clean, big and good in general. Frankly speaking I expected much more from famous duty free, but it is jus combination of several shops selling same goods as everywhere. Wi-Fi is free only for 1 hour.
A wonder to behold! Such a beautiful airport with top notch organization!
Must live dubai airport. Everything is clean and neat 👍🏼
Dubai airport is one of the most efficient airports in the World. It has everything except for a post office/courier Mail service point!
What free wifi !? Sneak onto the first floor besides the business class lounge for quite time and excellent bar food. Little hidden secret.
Evren UlusoySeptember 5, 2013This place HUGE!! Very modern! Even it has it's own transportation system which is way classy than istanbul metro system! It's hard to leave here.love it!
