It was a pleasant experience, but not the best. There wasn't enough seating for the passengers, and the staff was too few to assist travellers.

Small terminal. Poor selection. Oh yeah… and most importantly! They don't provide food on long flights! Please reconsider the airline's policy for the sake of people's comfort!

Terminal 2. There is a giant problem with a security perimeter in the international zone. Two men's with a changing consciousness were detected. They looked like after alcohol but didn't have any kind of smell. I am sure that those people were passengers. One of these is pestering with private questions.. One moment is an international zone.

At every airport, you want everything to be intuitive, especially when you are in such a place for the first time and even more so when this place is abroad... If it hadn't been for a compatriot who happened to come across to us and explained how to act correctly, we would have been mistaken and nervous, but everything went easier this way. Russian Russian is not available, of course, the staff does not speak Russian, except for individual words, you need to be prepared for this. In general, the airport is very modern, passport control is fast and clear (you can scan your passport yourself and attach a photo there, the main thing is to look at the right point)). The inspection is very thorough, and it is not even clear why, passing through the green frame, you can continue to be searched individually. There are a lot of people, you need to try to find a place to sit. The toilet is clean and exemplary. Very cool Duty free, the choice is excellent, the prices are not bad, besides there is a Russian-speaking staff.

1. Unprecedented efficiency. Despite the huge passenger traffic (one of the busiest airports in the world), everything is fine here in seconds. · Check-in counters and passport control: A huge number of counters, a smart queue system and incredibly polite staff make the process quick and stress-free. · Luggage system: Luggage arrives at the carousel with an enviable speed. This indicates the excellent work of the ground services. 2. A paradise for shopping and gourmets. You can spend a week here and not have time to go around all the shops. Duty Free in Dubai is a legend. It is huge, the prices are really attractive, and the range ranges from standard chocolate and alcohol to luxury jewelry, watches of the latest models and cosmetics of luxury brands at very affordable prices. Cafes for every taste and budget: from the usual McDonald's and Starbucks to restaurants. The verdict: Dubai Airport is an immaculately streamlined mechanism wrapped in a hospitality wrapper. It relieves all the stress associated with flying and turns waiting into pleasure.

In general, everything is very normal. I didn't have to walk much or far. Everything is, in fact, in one building. I walked in, and it was my turn to check in my luggage. Next, ticket control, then passports (they let the child in separately without waiting in line), then checking bags, and that's it. We are looking for our way out (of course, after the shops). We're waiting for the exit to open. Let's get on the bus. We're going to the plane. Let's get on board. We were just blunted at the beginning. We thought that we should look for an operator in the cities and hand over the suitcase there (as in Antalya, for example). But no. There's one common queue on flydubai. And the operator will distribute and give you a boarding pass himself.

It's not the coolest, but it's a good terminal, and all boarding and border procedures were quick. Not with everyone, but there is a failure of identity recognition on the passport control device. In this case, passengers have to go through passport control in the old-fashioned way with representatives of the border service. The halls are clean, there are enough places to wait for flights, there is no fuss. There is a place to have a snack.

A normal terminal is intuitive, and at least half of it takes up the place of a flight deck. Routine screening and retinal passport control speeds up the procedure. I did not notice segregation into more equal citizens and others. Free drinking water fountains. Clean toilets. But there are no teletraps. There are enough places to wait for boarding. Limited smartphone charging locations.

I fly through this terminal all the time. It is always a pleasure to communicate with the staff. I check in at the counter and they give me the seats you order. Fast border crossing through terminals. A nice bonus is the possibility of passing with bottles of water up to 0.5 liters. The estimate was reduced for the long queues in the business lounge, which is very small for such a large number of passengers.

If you don't need to wait long for departure, then this terminal is normal. It's good, with reasonable prices, duty free and good cafes. But if you wait more than 3 hours, then it's not much fun. The lounge area is absolutely not what we expect from Dubai - small, uncomfortable, with a very limited range of food and drinks. In Sharjah, a similar lounge area is just a palace. Maybe in other terminals everything is different, but in the second one it is.

The airport is big. All registrations and passport control are in digital form. There are a lot of people, but the queue passes quickly due to its regulation. Passing through all procedures quickly and clearly. The display boards are located in many places, and the boarding message is sent to the phone. It's clean, there are plenty of places to sit.

It's a great airport, I flew in and out of it. One of the disadvantages is a single-storey building, so there are no sleeves. The gates are working perfectly. Customs passes through automatic turnstiles. Check-in takes place through the general queue of the airline, individual counters are not specified. Dutch free is expensive compared to Ajman.

Positive:Great organization of access control, there is no frame at the entrance, the queue is regulated and moves very fast.Clear organization of procedures, no need to look for clothes trays, take off your shoes, etc. I liked it. Minuses:It's very cramped, the food court is disgusting with dirty tables, and there's very little free space.It feels like the terminal is located in the most mossy warehouse building for low-cost airlines of third countries

There are long queues for registration, you have to move in the general queue for about an hour, but there are a lot of counters, registration is fast. Then everything is much faster. The staff are doing their job, polite. Next, there is 1 large duty store, in principle, you can buy everything you need. The terminal itself is small, and the traffic capacity is huge

One plus , it 's small and you don 't have to walk a lot , and there aren 't many queues . That's all. It's better not to go to the toilet , especially for women ( that's what my wife said) , they wash their feet and other body parts in the sink , it's no better in the men's room , thanks for the smoking room , but it's very small and you don't have to light a cigarette , just go in for a breath and go out . With catering , it's a complete mess , there's a fight for places at McDonald's and kfs , it's problematic to eat normally , only fast food, not the most delicious. Dutch fries, small ones too, but that's definitely not the main thing when you fly out of Dubai, where you could buy everything . The main advantage of the airport is fast . The rest doesn't look like a UAE airport.

The terminal is terrible, there is a lot of crowding of people. There is practically no free seat to wait for your flight. A very poor dutifrey store. There are very few food outlets for so many people. I was unpleasantly surprised that in such a luxurious city and such a large airport, the terminal was so unsettled and uncomfortable. And it was renovated a long time ago. There are few toilets and there are queues in them.

The "old" airport in the mountains. Dubai has a great location, used mainly for arrivals and departures for Emirates and Fly Dubai. The planes of these two airlines make regular flights to Russian airports. Arrival and departure to the city after baggage collection are very convenient, everything is done as soon as possible. With departure, the service is also very fast. The "preponderance" of suitcases is assessed strictly. But when you are already in the waiting room at the boarding gates, it is very unpleasant: the hall is "packed" with those departing for the most part to India, Pakistan, and Russia. Places to eat - "one, two and run out." Since there are few seats in the hall, it is difficult to find places in both cafes and McDonald's. It's kind of very provincial and not cozy, not comfortable.

The terminal is small, compact and generally convenient. 2 check-in areas, Area1 and Area2 instead of the usual allocation of racks by numbers. Zone 1 for Fly Dubai, Zone 2 for Emirates. Other airlines do not serve here. Registration is fast, border crossing is electronic and just instant on departure, on arrival longer but acceptable. There is a large waiting room, a lot of people, but there is somewhere to sit down. Starbucks, McDuck and other eateries are available. Large multi-zone duty free. A disgustingly working business hall, which is immediately to the left after the special control, is always busy and with incompetent employees who, instead of organizing a queue, simply push you out with the words there are no places. They just pissed me off. Otherwise, it's fine.

I like the work of the staff, everything is fast, despite the large flow of people. The airport staff works from check-in to the drop-off areas by car and ending with boarding. The prices for a snack are adequate. The airport is clean and there are enough places. Once again, the staff is one of the best I've seen at airports.

We flew on vacation on March 1-9, 2025 from Novosibirsk with a Flydubai. Check-in at the counters is very fast (earlier than 3 hours), service begins, passport control through electronic terminals is also fast, baggage delivery is underway at this time. There is a dutifrey in the arrival and departure area (the choice is small, the prices are higher than the alcohol and cosmetics Ribbon in the Golden Apple), you should know that Terminal 2 is the smallest- it serves India and Russia.

Of course, this is not the main terminal with its luxury.What's interesting about it: check-in takes place through the terminal,since English is unknown to most, everyone has consultants and many speak their native and powerful languages well, then you go to the counter and check in your luggage,and then, as usual, to passport control. The Dutik is ordinary. I like that you can sit in an armchair and watch planes take off, but for some reason it seems that this terminal is for third world countries, not a single European flight, only ours and other poor countries (I won't name them, so as not to offend anyone).

It was a small terminal, very clean, but there was a queue for the toilet because of the cleaning. There is also no Victoria's Secret in this particular terminal in the duty free zone. Otherwise, there are no complaints, there are stations with sockets, a smoking room, a food court.

The terminal is clean and spacious. It was cool for me there (in the Emirates, air conditioners cool rooms everywhere), it's better to take a jacket or a sweatshirt with you. The registration system is interesting: all flights of one airline are registered in one place, i.e. there is one queue to Moscow and the Ministry of Water. They work quickly and accurately. We passed through customs quickly. Duty free is scarce, in my opinion, it's more interesting in Japan and China.

This is the furthest terminal and inconvenient for moving from one terminal to another. The 1st and 3rd are located next to each other, and the 2nd is on the opposite side of the airport. This should be taken into account when docking. We had 2 hours, we barely made it. Chateau drove through the airport for 40 minutes... We had 2 such crossings, not counting deliveries from and to the plane. We ran through the entire terminal, so that our heels sparkled, they were waiting for the last of us. Calculate the time!

I liked that there are employees who help me navigate the space. It turned out to be new and unusual that they themselves had to check in for a flight and check in their luggage at the counter. We were confused at first. We also passed the border by scanning our passport on our own. If you fly often, you'll get used to it quickly. Terminal 2 is designed for domestic flights and low-cost flights (charters). There are a lot of people at the airport-literally nowhere to land. I'll mention the free Wi-Fi at the airport. Boarding the plane is carried out by buses - I don't like this. Everything inside the airport is clean and tidy.

The Dutch free is small, but the prices for food and souvenirs are adequate. There are 2 exchangers. There is one check-in queue for all flights, so it is better to arrive in advance. It should also be borne in mind that boarding planes is carried out from the ramp, respectively, the gates are closed 20-25 minutes before departure.

Everything is modern, but be prepared to check yourself in for the flight, because the assistant can explain to one, and the others themselves. But don't worry, everything is very simple there and the registration terminal allows you to choose the Russian language. DO NOT FORGET TO SCAN EACH PASSPORT AND SELECT THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF LUGGAGE (hand LUGGAGE does not need to be considered) THE TERMINAL WILL PRINT OUT YOUR LUGGAGE FOR YOU, DO NOT FORGET TO PICK THEM UP, you do not have to glue them on your luggage yourself, as you will go to the final check-in (as with us) the luggage will be picked up there (you can put 2 suitcases at once for weighing 😁) and the stickers that were issued by the terminal will be pasted on by the employee herself. As it is, everything is technological and not familiar. Don't expect them to do everything for you, be careful!!!!!

Little. Dutik is also small. Emphasis on alcohol and cigarettes. Yes, and there is perfume. The pros follow from the cons. Food, shops and exits are all nearby. It's not in Istanbul, where you have to walk 20 or 30 minutes to get to the gate. Or Dubai 1st, where chaos is everywhere. The KFS and McDuck are conveniently located from the food. Almost all the staff speaks Russian in one way or another. Short transfers are a normal option. If you need shopping, then you are at 1 or 3 on the transfer bus. Although there's nothing there to ah either. There is even more chaos and fuss, there are more Chinese behind the counters, there are none in the 2nd terminal. Surprisingly, I liked it overall. I easily passed the 2 hours for the transfer.

All arrival and departure procedures are organized at the highest level. Everything is in order, no jostling. Baggage check-in and collection, passport and customs control, everything works flawlessly. There are many full-time employees everywhere who control the situation and immediately come to the rescue. And there are even containers with free drinking water. I wish the heads of our airports could learn from them. After all, this is an elementary concern for the passengers on whom you earn money.

A fully-sized terminal. There are no separate recreation areas, just a huge common room. Logically understandable. There are catering outlets. Due to the huge crowd, the hall is not very clean. The decoration is somewhat shabby. The business hall is small, shabby, and has no repairs (I do not recommend it).

We arrived at Terminal 2 during a trip to the Maldives and back. The terminal serves flights operated by Fly Dubai. In my opinion, the terminal cannot cope with the passenger's flow. There are not enough waiting areas in the terminal, few food and recreation points. On the way back, we had to wait 8 hours for the return flight to Kazan, and it was a serious ordeal. You're like a herring in a barrel at the airport. Next time, I'll think about flying through this airport again!!!

The terminal is too small for such a large flow of people. There is also a free taxi at the Dutch free, and they ask to show the purchased product for a VAT refund, but of course they are all in the luggage, so you shouldn't worry too much about receipts in stores and waste your time!

The third terminal is certainly better. This one is shabby or something. Duty free is not very much in it. A terrible retinal scanning system that doesn't work well. As a result, there were screams from employees everywhere: wider eyes, wider eyes. They expanded it to I can't, to the point of pain... But my husband couldn't get a scan, so they sent him to the police... You still expect better service from the UAE.

The terminal is not very large, there are a lot of people, and there are not enough seats. As for me, there are not enough cafes where you can have a snack. McDonald's, Starbucks, and a couple of other locals. The toilets are very clean, and someone cleans and cleans them all the time. We had to stay there because of a flight change, we wanted to buy a capsule hotel, but all the seats were occupied. One family member became ill, they quickly provided assistance, but they were in no hurry to get us on the flight, as a result of which we waited there for the bus for 20 minutes and did not take off on our flight.
