A large airport, where the staff copes quickly enough, customs control officers are friendly, know Russian, arrange everything, scan biometrics. There is a cafe in the waiting room where you can have a snack, but you still need to look for places to eat at the table or wait. The Duty Free price tags for this period are quite equal to the cost of the same thing that is sold on our sites. There is not enough room in the hall either. Boarding is always by bus to the plane.
Hello everyone! We flew on vacation to the UAE by Fly Dubai airline, arrived at Dubai airport in terminal 2. There were not many people on arrival, we passed customs control very quickly and received our luggage. It wasn't so beautiful back then.. There are a lot of people, there is no place to sit in cafes, restaurants or in the waiting area. Let's go into business because there were no places to relax. Of course, the airport is too small for such a city, because more budget airlines fly there, and there are sooo many of them. Good health and goodness to all!
Perhaps the most comfortable airport I've ever been to. Russia, China, Thailand, Turkey, Egypt. The UAE is the best)
The airport is small, all inscriptions are duplicated in English, the check-in and departure area is not difficult to find. There are smoking areas at the airport. Terminal 2 has a smoking area even in the immediate supermarket area. Drinking fountains are installed
Small, compact, understandable, clean, there is enough space for everyone. There are many shops-perfumes, gold, souvenirs, olives, sweets and goodies. Where to eat, have coffee or other drinks, everything is there.
The United Arab Emirates is now the friendliest country, where tourists from Russia will receive the warmest welcome. Beautiful sea, beaches with the cleanest, white sand, which is cleaned daily. And of course, as locals in a bank or other place, they are very friendly.At the hotel, at the airport, you will mostly have to communicate with Indians, Filipinos, and even people from Africa. The airport in Dubai is like a huge city, but everything is arranged so that tourists can feel comfortable.When checking luggage, tourists are not subjected to humiliating inspection. luggage. Know that Russians will receive the friendliest welcome in the Emirates. I was also struck by how respectfully the Sheikhs are treated there, their portraits hang in hotels, on billboards in the city, no one would think of speaking disparagingly about them or expressing dissatisfaction with their policies and rule.
Excellent airport, excellent duty free, everything is fine, everything is clean, many many many citizens from Pakistan, Iran,India, etc. it is unrealistic to just sit down among your own, but who is not afraid, then everything is fine, there is an exchanger-change dirhams for currency back, if there is of course))))
Registration is fast, there is only one inspection - everything went quickly, compared to the Ball. The waiting room is large, there is a place for everyone to sit. We flew to Fly Dubai - it's big, comfortable, they fed us, the pilots speak only English and Arabic.
It's hard to put 5 stars, I explain why, a huge crowd of people on departure, you can't breathe in the hall, a very small business hall, you can have a delicious snack and even use a bar where there is alcohol, but small smoking booths, this is for smokers, of course, spoil everything, and the smoking room in the departure hall is a torture chamber although for smokers this is an outlet before a long-distance flight, but in general the impression is not bad, I recommend it.
Terminal 2 for Russia, Nepal, etc., is much more modest than terminal 3, but there is everything you need, a large area with a cafe, enough space to wait, there are shops and currency exchanges.
It does not differ in gloss, but there are upholstered chairs on which you can wait for boarding your flight.
I really liked the airport
I especially liked the smoking room at the airport... She's the best I've met riding around the world.
There is no smell in the smoking room (the ventilation system is very well thought out), there are comfortable chairs and ashtrays...
I took part in a motorcycle raffle at the airport... it seems to me... that I would win it... It was the first time in my life that I bought such an expensive lottery ticket...
The Russian language is known in the country and at the airport... A Russian-speaking girl helped me fill out the lottery ticket
Prices, as in all airports, are exorbitant... it is better to bring sandwiches with you, and tea in a thermos ;)
Check-in is not very fast. But customs and border control is very fast. There is a duty-free service (although there is only one, but not a small one). There is a Poppy, there is a smoking area. There are a lot of people in the waiting room, but you can find empty seats
Just one frame. Everything is very fast. One of the disadvantages is that it can take a very long time to get from the plane to the airport.
The toilets are very clean, unlike Sheremetyevo and others. I was not in the business hall, but there was a long queue there.
Good morning!!!this airport, it needs to be seen how everything is done correctly and clearly, it is thought out how many people are served around the clock in the process, in general, this is the best thing for me that I have seen, no deviations from the schedule, clean everywhere... Well, in duty-free shops, as in a good museum, I looked and went on.... After a vacation with price tags, we are not on the way!!!
I thought that there would be a Wow airport, the second terminal is small with a lot of traffic, sometimes people are like sprats in a jar. I liked Moscow airports more in terms of space and navigation, and the third terminal is more spacious.
It should be noted that despite the large number of people, all inspections and inspections take place quickly enough.
The feature of the airport is a free taxi around the airport on electric cars, it's cool.
A good airport, a fairly convenient terminal. All procedures: passport control, baggage inspection, personal inspection were just instantaneous. Duty-free shops also left a good impression. The only thing that bothered me was the bustle in the sterile area, there were a lot of people... But in general, everything is quite good. I would especially like to note the cleanliness of the toilets.
In general, everything is fine. All services work quickly, without queues. There are many places to eat, there are enough places to wait for boarding.
I was a little disappointed with Duty free (the range is very modest).
The business room is small. There are not enough places during rush hour. It's cool in the waiting room. I recommend having warm clothes with you. You can apply for TAX-FREE. But to do this, you need to approach an employee BEFORE the security area (at the entrance to the airport) to apply for a tax-free QR code)
The terminal is new , but not too spacious. Dutifrey accommodates a large number of alcoholic and food products, but cosmetics and perfumes are minimal. Only Armani is represented from the clothes , but the running dimensions have been disassembled. There are stands with sun glasses.
There are several cafes, but they do not accommodate those who wish, I had to wait and catch a table to sit down to eat. There are few chairs for relaxation. The business lounge is tiny, it's literally a small room. There is a separate smoking room, which is a plus for those who smoke.
In general, it's not bad , but it's a little cramped.
Dress warmly, there are strong air conditioners at the airport. Good duty free, reasonable prices. There is a cafe and free Wi-Fi at the airport. Everything is at the highest level.
A very grandiose, thoughtful structure, 3 terminals, a huge flow of passengers. A large transport hub. Excellent integrated logistics between terminals.
We flew from this airport to Moscow perfectly, flew very comfortably to the airport, bought souvenirs that we did not have time to buy near the hotel, the prices are very cheap
I was very surprised by the lack of metal detectors and controls at the airport entrance. In general, everything is clean and tidy, but the general queue for registration temporarily turns the room into a Bombay bazaar and the feeling is quite panicky from all this. Although the staff is attentive and polite, there is always an evil cleaner who will spoil the mood.. in general, it is tolerable, but I expected more from Dubai, to be honest.
If we arrive, there is duty free, the choice is not very large, but you can find something for yourself, it is better to pay in dirhams, you can pay in cash or by card. I had a map of friendly neighbors with me🤑
If we fly away, a very small duty free. There is a queue in the business hall and it is literally packed, a special person walks around the hall, who monitors the vacant seats and so that the seats are not occupied with things. The scoreboard did not show information about the landing, they tracked themselves.
The terminal is loaded, you will have to sit for a long transfer, couches are only for business class, economy is not allowed. Another thing is the 3rd, a new terminal, comfortable, spacious, there are free beds.
Some disadvantages. The terminal is large but crowded, there are not enough places to relax, there are no alerts about landing, takeoff, and departure at all. In addition to passport control and duty free, no one speaks Russian, the staff does not care, even on board the flight from Russia, the notification and the stewards chatter only in English. and Arabic. One negative.
I liked the airport, unobtrusive inspection at the entrance, liquids can be carried, everything you need is there, very clean, they are cleaned continuously, passport control was completed in 5 minutes.
One of the best airports in terms of comfort. Although the business room is small. There are a lot of duty free boutiques, the staff is very courteous.
It's a good airport. You can weigh your luggage for 2 dirzams. Good logistics at the check-in counters. There is a large selection of snacks in the waiting room, but there are very few seats.
A very simple and convenient airport. Yes, it's better than our Russian airports.
Although it's big because of the workload, it's a little cramped.
Especially in the drive. Like an anthill.
A large airport with many shops and cafes. There is a smoking room. The toilets are clean, they wash constantly. Vending water is cheaper than in Moscow)
I was there in April during the flood, horror, a bunch of incomprehensible characters, like in the Middle Ages in terms of clothes....Funny, but sad... in July, when it was operating normally, it should be remembered that it is mainly used for domestic flights, the dutik is correspondingly poor, but there were good discounts on AX clothes and boss 200ml perfumes for 99 USD. It's a bit boring, it performs its function.
Comfortable, beautiful, convenient, understandable, even for those who are here for the first time, the airport!
If something is unclear, they will explain, help, conduct, since love for people and friendliness are above all here. It never happens any other way! Check-in queues are very fast and with smiles from airport employees. Even if you fly away at night, even if you arrive at 6 a.m., always with a smile! And it infects 100%!
Personally, yes.
Families with children go out of turn, there is a very reverent attitude towards the little ones.
In general, they meet and see you off like relatives!
People in the UAE, I love you for such hospitality!
Once I watched a whole Discovery movie about the airport on TV, so it seemed to me like a wonder of the world there. As a result, Terminal 2 is a small hall, dear Dutifrey, the only crowded business hall. But more or less clean and polite. I lowered the ball so that they wouldn't expect a miracle.
It's convenient, but the departure lounges are always packed with people, it's difficult to recharge the phone, the sockets are always busy.. But I like that there are cafes, a pharmacy... But there are always a lot of people....
I gave 5 stars for the service staff. After the surgery, there was a flight - and I was very lame, at our Vnukovo Airport, everyone doesn't give a damn about you, they make you walk around their empty counters. they not only helped with the suitcases, but also opened the corridor. That's what I consider a service.
