Many restaurants to select from. I really like this airport. One of the best.
AlexOctober 2, 2014Grand looking and clean. Efficient processing of passengers. Free WiFi, but slow. Most staff speak English. Private taxi to Jumeirah costs ~125 AED.
Doc EmerDecember 25, 2014Always full to the brim. Avoid the crowd by knowing where the Metro is, where the bus and taxi stands are, and better, have a butler fetch you.
Zakaria AhmedApril 21, 2016Never mind if you arrive early your stay @DXB will be another enjoyable experience #mustbeDXB
Farhad Kazemi ManeshJuly 8, 2021Nice and tidy, and you can find whatever you want, but took time to find the Winston smoking room.
Arpit JawaNovember 29, 2014Free WiFi! Yeeay! Requires one time registration. Can register with another ID once free time limit is exhausted.
Praveen PaulsamyOctober 19, 2014My all time favourite airport. Just allow enough time to reach your gates - there are helpful signs all over the place.
Very clean, spacious, great shopping and restaurant choices. Bad free wifi.
Naoki FerrioNovember 6, 201724 hours duty free shops, restaurants and cafes. You need to take an airport train to reach gate A-D. The toilet seat has a shower.
World slowest custom immigration. 40 on queue wait for 1 hour plus. Trying to much to be the best in efficiency but still FAIL big time.
Free wifi (maxpot), just open your browser to validate. Water bottle is cheaper at duty free shop than the coffee shops. Immigration queue quite long after 10pm till morning.
Lesha ZhivilovNovember 21, 2011If you looking a calm place to sleep lead to gates 141-143. There is a room covered by carpet and many electronic plugs. You can relax on the floor spent you time in internet.
Zulkifli Achmad MadroiJune 13, 2013Place are comfortable.... now we can enjoy free wifi also, just always check the local time and gate for boarding first before other things
The NemiroffJuly 7, 2012Huge choice of shops and restaurants.Spend more 3k Dhs, and get a free gift. Free Wi-Fi "maxspot"
One of the greatest airports in Middle East , 3 terminals take you to the world 👏🏻
Souri SoJanuary 27, 2017Nice shopping mall! Emirates offers food coupons if you are transiting through Dubaï 👌🏽
One of d best airport ever ! Nothing more to say. Must travel via this spot fellas.. Loving it ❤️
If u r travelling by Emirates, just reach the airport well in advance. You might have to walk for almost a mile to your gate.
It's well organized and very huge make sure to point out your gate before shopping
Nittoo AhluwaliaJune 7, 2019Even though I took a A380 flight it was easy and comfortable getting around brilliant design
The most efficient airport in the middle east (Terminal 3).
Wies LabarqueMay 5, 2017DXB free wifi is indeed WOW. Never seen airport free wifi this slow! Long queues for toilets as well and very crowded, but hey, at least they have the title "one of busiest airports in the wotld"...
Terminal 2 is quite small but quick . Paul is under renovation:( next best thing Costa or the Marhaba lounge (could get really crowded)
Christian LøveråsMay 4, 2012Bypass the ginormous "passport control" lines by with an "e-gate" card, which you get at the e-gate office in T1, 2nd floor. Take 15 mins. Non-UAE OK. 200 AED. Open 24h?
N / AAugust 29, 2017The worst! Too crowded. You cannot find a decent place to sit at any cafe or in the waiting areas! Even to go to the toilet, I had to wait an hour until I got on the plane, due to too long lane to WCs
Lots of shopping, but its a big airport. If you have a connections make sure you don't get lost!! That being said it's easy to navigate around.
Best shopping for last minutes gifts.. many restaurant options.. shower rooms & first aid..
Besim SadıkayJanuary 29, 2020Do not rent a car prior your visit if you are landing on Terminal 2. Almost all car rental companies are located in Terminal 1. It costs 40 AED from Terminal 2 to Terminal 1 by cab.
Timo LuegeDecember 28, 2013If you are flying economy, the Marhaba lounges are a good alternative to the business lounges. Access costs 175 DHS and includes a buffet.
Welcome to DXB / Bon Voyage.. You are at one of the best Airports in the World.. Enjoy!!
RaniaJuly 11, 2017When waiting in line for a taxi, insist on using regular taxis. Sometimes the coordinator might direct to use more expensive options (limousine or pink taxis). Refuse if you don't want to pay extra.
If you are a lounge monger like me, try the Dubai International Hotel Lounge. This is only for those who can't access Emirates lounges.
Kim SchneiderOctober 3, 2017Jesus this Thing is big! I spend most of my time there riding a bus from one side to the other I think.
Eleanor GarthAugust 18, 2014You'll never make it out - it's like a maze. Make sure you have cash for the cabs as they don't take credit cards!
Adhith ShanmugamJuly 17, 2015Free wifi for a short period.Terminal 3 has restaurants,if you want find out more on T2 which has done more options.Limited charging stations for your devices.Good architecture.
If you're lucky enough to be traveling First Class on Emirates, prepare yourself to be amazed by the First Class Lounge at Terminal 3 (and disappointed by every other airport lounge in the world).
EmanJanuary 16, 2015I love this airport. I always arrive with an empty suitcase and an empty stomach 😉
Thomas RuschkeNovember 6, 2016If you have an overnight layover, stay in the Dubai International Hotel - directly in the Terminal! Expect about $200/night.
- Well, it’s an airport... but generally very good standards here... just don’t take too long dropping somebody off as the cops 👮 will be on your case
Nicky TemmermanSeptember 15, 2013if you're flying Emirates and have an over 4 hour transfer, you can get a free meal voucher near gate A8 at the Emirates desk!
Irina GolovanovaFebruary 24, 2014If you fly with Emirates and have a long connection time you can go the the Emirates counter in Terminal B and ask for free meal voucher.
