Flying To Dubai - Airport and Travel Guide

There are direct flights to Dubai from most European and Asian cities, if you fly from North America or Canada then you have to fly via Europe or Asia. However, looking on the bright side, it makes the flight cheaper and also gives you the opportunity to explore Europe with the typical stopovers in either Paris, Amsterdam or London.

The major airlines in Dubai, Emirates Airlines (www.emirates.com), Gulf Air (www.gulfair.com) and AirArabia flies from neighboring Sharjah. If you are looking to keep to the cost of flight to a minimum, then a good opportunity to fly via Gulf Air via Bahrain, Qatar Airways, or even about Doha. However, bear in mind that indirect flights usually much cheaper but can be uncomfortable - you may wonder hanging around airport lounges for many hours to do that airport "game" followed by endless waiting is endless queues, it really woth it a some £ 's to save?

ittend to more expensive flight to Dubai in June-August period and also over Christmas (in fact, from early December) until the end of January. This book and try to avoid flying in these times, if at all possible - remember prices in the UAE are regulated, there are no bucket shops still cheap last minute deals, so your flight as early as possible to best to get the price.

On a side note Emirates Airlines now have a perfect safety standard, they are not the cheapest airline, butthey are used as first-class service and safety record is worth something to look into account!

Dubai International Airport is the busiest airport in the Middle East, almost 25 million passengers in 2005 (as compared with Seattle handled 29 million passengers in 2005 and is listed in the top 30 busiest airports in the world). Apparently the government is investing an additional $ 2.5 billion in the expansion of the airport due to the rapid increase of tourist traffic. We shouldsee the Dubai International as one of the busiest airports in the world in 2007 listed.

Getting to / from the airport is easy and inexpensive. You can choose between municipal buses, airport buses, taxi or limo's. In addition, the most prestigious hotels, especially at the Jumeirah Beach, offers a free shuttle to and from the airport. The costs are approximately Dh1.50, a taxi will cost approximately Dh60 to the Jumeirah beach. (Ie The currecy Emirates dirham is pegged to the dollar,1Dh = $ 1, easy!).

Other points you should before planning a trip to Dubai to note - technically, if evidence of trips to Israel in your passport will be refused entry, you also must have at least 6 months validity from the date of arrival. Suppose you meet these requirements in a 60 days visa on arrival at the airport. There is no charge for a standard 60-day visa.

Finally, as with most trips abroad, a little effort in terms of learning the language cango a long way. Here are some simple everyday words) that you can help - "Marhaba" Hello, "Al-Salaam alaykum," peace be with you (typical Arab greeting, "I shukran" thank you.
