The airport is very quiet and peaceful, the employees are the same. Like in a museum. But, it is very convenient if you go from Marina Bay.

It is located very far from the city center, if there is a choice, it is better to fly via DXB. A taxi to the center of Dubai costs about 250-350 AED, but you can get to the nearest metro Expo 2020. There are few cafes inside, only McDonald's and a couple of coffee shops.

Everything you need is there, a large territory. Of the non-amenities: I did not find where to print a ticket, they do not announce check-in for flights and the airport is not conveniently located, you need to take a taxi or bus to the nearest metro station, the station is 20 km from the airport

It's a good airport. Only Russians. Passport control is fast!
4 stars for checking baggage on departure. They don't inspect it at the entrance, you go straight to the registration, and then only personal inspection and hand luggage.

We arrived, quickly went through all the procedures, there was no luggage, so we quickly went to the taxi and headed to the hotel. Everything was fast on the flight too! There weren't many people!

A great small airport. No need to walk for a long time, everything is fast. But be careful: Victory forced me to put my carry-on luggage (I bought a special Victory Bag, a purse for their check box size) in a drawer and put my duty-free purchases on top, a bag with bottles)))!!! It was lucky that it got in, otherwise I don't even know what would have happened.

A new one, built for EXPO 2020, but due to the pandemic it was closed, flights are now resuming, there are a lot of check-in counters, there are drinking fountains with water, McD and not only, polite staff (gave seats on the plane with a teenager, although they are not obliged!)
From the airport to the metro by bus 55, everything clean and pleasant.
In Duty Free, I bought a souvenir that was searched all over Dubai🙃

Spacious clean building, air conditioning, plenty of places to relax, quick check-in. There are enough green areas and flowers around, despite the fact that it is a desert

The airport is located far from the city, transport accessibility is questionable - we got from here and here by taxi.
Official taxis near the international arrival stand right in line, driving on the counter.
Upon departure: the common area is empty, there is one coffee shop, luggage packing and check-in counters. There are few places to sit.
The clean area has a more comfortable environment, there are cafes and shops.
There are no teletraps, and boarding and disembarking under the bus.

The airport is clean and relatively new, but it doesn't seem to be in much use. It serves flights from Russia, not Aeroflot, and from the CIS and India. It is always almost empty, there are very few shops and cafes, a couple of duty free, two coffee shops and a poppy. It is located at a distance from Dubai, a taxi from there will cost a lot, and it will take an hour and a half to get to the center by public transport

I'll be honest. The airport is small. The waiting time is normal, the seats are very good. Duty-free shops are very good. There is everything you need. The food is great. Generally 4 per capacity

A dutifrey with a basic assortment, some electronics, some booze, some perfume and souvenirs. Everything is organized according to the norms, crowds or some other problems were not noticed. Disembarkation and boarding without problems are all very easy.

If possible, it is better to choose Al Maktoum airport, there are much fewer people here, everything is nearby, you can quickly cross the border, check in, take a taxi. Very convenient.

It is located not far from Dubai. Clean. Not crowded. Be careful with taxi drivers at the airport, they try to cheat, demand a trip only by the meter. The airport makes a good impression

Excellent airport, 35 km from Dubai. You can get to the city by bus f55 to Expo 2020 station and take the metro. Back the same way.

Upon arrival at duty free, you can register on their website and get a 50% discount on goods, the staff at the checkout will help with this, but there are no such discounts for departure

Everything is clear, navigation, maintenance, inspection, shops. The main thing is to observe the baggage allowance otherwise for overweight and not matching the size of the ticket office

Why are there few people working at the check-in desks? There are a whole bunch of check-in counters, and there are 3 staff, and even slow workers. Due to the slow work of the staff at the check-in, flights are delayed. The Ural ones arrived on time. The flight (the landing itself) was delayed by 1.5 hours, the crew learned that the receiving side did not adjust the ramp for 40 minutes, but all because they work slowly in Dubai, do not fit in time, and ordinary people suffer.

The airport is good, but it is very far to get to it. If you get by public transport from the center, then it takes 1.5-2 hours to drive. First, take the metro to expo 2020 station (the final one), then take the F55 bus (you mean buses don't run often, you'll have to wait). If you take a taxi, prepare about 200 dirhams. There is a duty free. I flew from this airport on Victory to Vnukovo. The staff is responsive (I was late for check-in, they entered the check-in position. Special thanks to them for that!). If it wasn't for the location, then 5 stars.

It's creepy, we were in a flood in March, a lot of planes were delayed, we got to the airport, we monitored the schedule very carefully, our flight was not, in general, there were no announcements on the loudspeaker at all, although we checked in. We saw by chance on the scoreboard in the smoking room that our flight was flying in 3.2.1…
Miraculously, they managed to do it. Disgusting! Dubai has disappointed, in emergency situations you are one on one, with the elements, the problem and the ID.

An airport without labyrinths. Everything is very clear where to go. And they didn't shake it at customs, but they let it through very quickly. Everything is perfectly arranged.

A small and sluggish airport. Upon arrival, we queued for 2 hours at passport control, as only 3 people worked. Fortunately, there were no such problems on the flight.

Yes, it is small. Yes, there are few shops. Yes, there are few people. So that's fine. A clean and unloaded airport. No queues, no fuss. If you live in the neighboring areas, then it's absolutely fine. It is quite convenient for me to go from the Marina, but by car, of course. The subway doesn't go there.

This airport is much smaller than DXB, but it still happens fast. Fewer people, fewer queues. We passed the customs in a few seconds, looking at the camera.

A huge new airport and completely empty. The inconvenient location is far outside the city, it is long and expensive to get there. Only about a dozen flights are operated per day, mainly from Russia. Apparently airlines from other countries don't want to fly there because passengers don't want to fly there.
If it is possible to take tickets to another Dubai airport, it is better to fly there.

The most cozy airport in Dubai 😇 Cozy, clean and tidy ✈️ I bought a couple of gifts for my students at Duty Free 🧑🎓 The prices are cool and pleasant 😇 The airport staff are polite, prompt and even caring ☺️
On the 2nd floor of the McDonald's during the service, the staff is polite!

We were stuck for 12 hours at this airport with young children. It's very cozy. Carpets are everywhere. There is a cleaner in every toilet. Cool duty free. There are sun beds. There is a lot of space. There are charges.

The case when they didn't pull it out, they promise to build a gigantic hub since 2008, but all they could do was a tiny airfield without people, shops and entertainment

A small, outdated airport. There are only one or two power points. Of the two rolls, one was ruined. There are no questions about the speed of registration and customs procedures. Passport control is in automatic mode.

To get there by taxi by car or take a transfer, about 100 dirhams. A "sonorous" taxi is expensive. The grandcosmopolitan Hotel is about a 40-minute drive from Almaktum. Check-in at the counters is convenient, dutifrey is very expensive, it is better to go to the supermarket in the Dubai Mall than here. Hot meals on the second floor at Macdonalds for passengers whose flight is delayed.

It's not a big airport. With very slow volumes. 2 planes arrived, and 1 employee at the customs. They took away an hour of my vacation while I was standing in line.

The airport, which is at the stage of formation (November 2023). Due to the fact that very few companies fly into it, it is not crowded at all, which can be a plus. On the other hand, most of it is in the process of construction, so it is not available. For example, you can only eat at McDonald's. There are, however, a couple more places with sweets and coffee, but you will not be able to have lunch there. There is one duty-free store.
The airport staff is not very efficient (judging from my experience). They shuffled my turn for registration 4 times. This will spoil your nerves a little, but it will not affect the real time of registration much.
Border control on arrival is quite fast. Passport control for departure from the country is fully automated - you will not even meet with real border guards.
The metro does not go to this airport. The only way to get there by public transport is to use a bus. Unfortunately, there is absolutely no luggage space on the bus. Therefore, the only option for passengers with luggage is a taxi.

On the plus side: not many flights are served, it's small in itself, you don't have to wander around like in DXB
Cons: Russian flights arrive at the same time several at once and from St. Petersburg is the latest, so there is a queue at customs, the smart gate does not always work, waiting for the bus at the plane is almost always
Well, the location is almost an hour from the center of Dubai is also a minus

Nice, big airport. It is sparsely populated, but there is already information that soon, instead of the main airport, while it is under reconstruction, some flights will be transferred here. Very nice staff. There is a duty free. One disadvantage is that it is far from the center. The average taxi ride to it is 140 dirhams. If you arrived in the afternoon or in the morning, you can buy a silver card for transport right at the currency exchange office, top it up and drive three, it seems, dirhams to the Expo 2020 metro station. We didn't know, and went to the metro station by taxi with other tourists.

Big, I arrived at 8-00 in the morning, and there was no one in the building, even at first I thought it was like in a thriller. I liked that there was no crowd of people, I quickly passed registration and customs control.
