They serve at the check-in desks quite quickly. The staff is polite, especially with people of European appearance. The inspection is fast and less problematic than in Russia. You can go through the border control machine yourself. Duty free has everything, including alcohol. There is a food court with different cuisines in the waiting room, the prices are quite affordable. There is a drinking fountain. They launch into the departure zone about an hour before it. It's really cold there, it feels like 17 degrees, people are putting on jackets.

There have never been any problems passing through customs control. Baggage screening is very loyal. They always let me through with water. As a rule, everything goes quickly. The airport, which is always very crowded, especially Hindus. Duty free for three (the choice is small, but the prices are high).

Convenient airport, good business lounge. If you have already entered the UAE, you can go through passport control through the smart gate. and since we had boarding passes, it took a couple of minutes from the entrance to the airport to the clean zone! Awesome

There is a huge queue at check-in at AirArabia and it is moving very slowly. When planning your arrival time at the airport, put at least an hour in the check-in queue, or even better, check in in advance online and print out a ticket if you are without luggage. Upon boarding, the total weight of hand luggage will be rechecked, and if exceeded, an additional payment will be required.

Cheap water in vending machines. I've never seen it cheaper in the world. 1 dirhams for 0.5. Quite reasonable prices in cafes in the international area. Among the disadvantages: cold weather and crowds of workers from the 3rd world who do not know how to behave decently in public places.

I got a little confused on arrival. There are no signs for transit and passport control. One crowd, from which employees in blue uniforms with scanners direct people to the right and left. It turns out that the passport control is to the left. They scanned the exterior for a long time. But then it was back, everything was fast... I checked in my luggage, and the robot let me into the departure area...waiting and flying. It was a discovery that you can choose in-flight meals, tea and coffee for a fee.

It is strange that the inspection of personal belongings is already in front of the plane, when all the boutiques and shops have passed. When we arrived, there were a lot of people, not all the "windows" of the customs officers were working, and you could stand for hours. We got through the trick well and it turned out a little faster. And so it would be for three hours, after the flight it's not very interesting)))

It's all good. Clear. Passport control is very fast. All necessary services are available, including shops and cafes. The only thing is very "evil" air conditioners, I already had to sit in a jacket. Very cold.

It's a very colorful airport. Small. There is drinking water in the fountains. There are cafes, including McDonald's, Subway, and some national dishes. Duty free is big. The only thing is, it's VERY cold at the airport! The air conditioners are fully operational. If you are going to fly through Sharjah, I highly recommend that you stock up on a warm blouse in advance.

The huge airport, the Dutch free is awesome, the choice is gorgeous, huge, just not ordinary. You can pay in any currency. I had a Union Pay card, it was calculated without any problems. There is Wi-Fi, too, a good plus. The disadvantage of the airport is to eat well, there are cafes, but there are few of them, mostly fast food and it smelled very much like a toilet, I just can't stand sitting in a cafe. Overall, I liked the airport!

The airport is not bad, the questions are more about Air Arabia. It's cool in the building. There are special staff who advise/guide, all friendly. There is little alcohol in duty free... Well, or rather average like that. Basic duty free before the inspection, after that - just some small things. Due to the fact that everyone is naked, the search is quick. The water was not taken away. There are enough toilets, but some of them don't mean anything at all: you follow the sign like that, and there's a misunderstanding about two cubicles. The food zone is sparse, but you can have a snack, the queues are only at McDonald's. This is also before the inspection. The waiting areas are right next to each other, but I didn't notice any excitement.

The airport is small compared to Dubai. There is little space to wait for boarding . A good dutiful and food court, you can find everything you need . If it's a long transfer, you can get out and take a taxi to Dubai. It takes 40 minutes to drive , and costs about 100 dirhams.

I really liked the airport, we chose it specifically to get to Fujairah faster. Compact, clean, and there are signs at every step. The inspection is quick and well organized. There is a dedicated desk at passport control for families with children, which is very convenient. All the staff is polite and friendly.

We flew through Sharjah in April 2024. On arrival, it's just creepy: a huge queue at passport control for an hour, where most of the passengers are Pakistanis and Hindus. Maybe the flights coincided, of course. But it seemed that they were just planned that way.… At the check-in stage, there are very friendly girls who are ready to help in any situation!The son dropped a very small part of the toy on the mottled floor, it was unrealistic to see something. So the girl found her in a flash! Thank you so much for your responsiveness! There are a lot of shops, there is a place to eat. There are places for charging in the waiting rooms. Our experience of staying in the departure area was not very pleasant, because we got into a period of flooding of roads from heavy rains. But if we abstract from this situation, then there is a normal airport, but there is not enough organization when passing a large number of passengers.

The airport is compact and intuitive. You need to keep an eye on the employees. They give tickets in which the seats are not the ones that you bought, but completely different. Then the showdown lasts for 30 minutes, during which the staff is ready to help all the Arabs, go to the toilet and smoke, but not solve the problem.

A small but well-organized airport. There are staff members everywhere in the transit area who will tell you where to go. The staff is friendly, communicating through a translator on the phone. Wi-Fi was immediately picked up without authorization. The inspection is well organized. Passed without delay. There are a lot of chairs in the waiting room of the transit area. The bathrooms are clean.

The girl helped to go through self-check-in without queues, but the luggage was still handed over at the check-in desk, although there was almost no queue, if you need to buy something in dutifrey, then you need to do it before passing the inspection, in this area it is the largest, after passing the inspection, there will only be a small shop and shops for waiting

The airport is clean, cleaners are always walking around with rags. An interesting feature: rich Arabs had a habit of throwing garbage on the floor, simpler Arabs carried it to the trash can (they put some leatherback on the floor, ate something of their own, very fragrant, lay in a circle near the plastic bag, burped loudly together, then cleaned up after themselves). There are prayer rooms for Muslims near the toilets. A special room is provided for smokers.

Why 4 , it's been a long time since all airports exit the plane immediately to the airport, here we arrive for the third time again by bus , you wait a long time until the bus is full, of the advantages: contactless passport control, free wi-fi, you can bring water with you, and by the way, the price of water is one dirham , coffee 3 , but duty free Free prices are just a plane , especially for alcohol and chocolate !!! It 's average in the waiting room , of course there aren 't enough phone chargers , it 's pretty cool , but this is so that you don 't forget that we 're flying home and the weather is cool at home , but overall everything is fine .

A very comfortable, spacious, clean, air-conditioned airport. We've been in transit here almost all day. There are many toilets (and they are very clean - they clean all day long), there are prayer rooms for Muslims. There are many cafes for every taste, with reasonable prices. There is a pharmacy, currency exchange, etc. Comfortable and large waiting areas. There are consultants who can help you figure out a difficult situation. Minus one - there are no storage rooms! We wanted to go out into the city for a walk, we had a transfer at 8 o'clock. But they didn't dare to walk in the heat with heavy backpacks. This is a big disadvantage. Otherwise, the airport is beautiful.

It's a strange airport! There is no luggage storage! Absolutely!!! The nearest one in Dubai)))) There are no free outlets or charging stations. They don't give you a free travel SIM card, like in Dubai. Only for the money of '79 or $89 for 3 days. And the tiniest thing is that Air Arabia employees are scurrying around the airport with hand scales. If they see that a passenger has bulky hand luggage, they immediately outweigh it and make notes on the boarding pass. They wanted 1000 dirhams from me for the advantage. I had to put on warm clothes and walk around the airport in a down jacket and winter boots . 😵💫 Before boarding the plane, we outweighed 2 more times because of these markings in the boarding gate ((( Plus only 1 - free wi-fi and drinking fountains.

Of the cons:a huge crowd of people. I have never seen such a large crowd of passengers anywhere. And as a result, endless traffic jams when leaving the airport. It may be normal for transit, but as an arrival point, it's terrible. Of the advantages:If this is not the first time you arrive in the UAE, you can quickly go through customs control through the smart gate.

Sharjah Airport, it's like you're in another country... and not the best country for a minute). The Emirates have long been admired for their high level of technology, service, and comfort. This is really a different world with rapid upward development! The same cannot be said about the air harbor, which is a face for guests, tourists, businessmen and everyone who gets here. Low ceilings, small rooms, some kind of awkward cafes, where it is immediately written that you should not stay here for a long time))) It's very, very cold everywhere, cleanliness is questionable, there aren't enough empty seats, and much, much more.… There are a couple of duty free shops, including in the arrivals area after passport control, which is a plus. Tactful staff in the passport control area, and perhaps that's all the advantages.…

It's a pretty cozy small airport, it's convenient to go through the region on the ground floor not far from the entrance, border control on the second floor is fast without fuss, then a small transition and descent to the ground floor to the departure waiting area. The airport operates smoothly and efficiently like a Swiss watch.

It's a small, comfortable airport, there are enough seats, the air is blowing strongly, it's better to dress warmly or take something with you to change into. Large, well-ventilated smoking rooms. It took 15 minutes all the way to the gate, and you walk fast. One of the best airports we've been to so far.

An interesting airport. Not big, everything is nearby. There are signs everywhere. There is almost no inspection. Everything is somehow relaxed with them. Once things were passed through an X-ray. That's all. Water was allowed to be taken on the plane. Good duty free, better than in Antalya. I really liked the lounge. Comfortable. There are charging sockets everywhere. The food is excellent. There are even fresh vegetables and fruits. I left a very pleasant impression.

Flights were scheduled to dock at the airport. There were 50 minutes between flights. I was very worried about whether we would make it. But in fact, it turned out to move from one plane to another very quickly, in about 10 minutes! Excellent result, the planes were correctly positioned, close to each other.

The airport is not very big, I liked the fact that at check-in we were assigned to certain windows, but then they explained that, in principle, we can go to any window. Passport control is divided into two parts:The first one is for families with children and for solo travelers who scan their passports themselves and look at the camera.

What about the airport? On the plus side: it's clean here. Even the restroom is constantly staffed and kept clean. There is no security clearance here at all. In Russia, by the time you reach the Green Zone, your bags will be turned out several times and stripped to your underpants. No one cares what you have with you. You can't charge your phone anywhere - it's a huge strain with sockets. We found a guy at the outlet who, by a lucky chance, had an extension cord for 5 connectors, and they were powered up))). There are little men in blue vests running around at the airport with the words can I help you on the back? They won't help you. If you ask three different people the same question, all three will give different answers and send them in different directions. It's also very cold here. They love the cold too much for people living in the desert. We periodically went outside to warm up)))

Fairly fast and trouble-free customs and border control. It is located close to the city (we took a taxi to the hotel in Sharjah and back in no more than 30 minutes). Taxi screams near the exit. The nearest one has Lexus cars and drivers in suits and white shirts. Their prices are 3-4 times more expensive than the Toyotas located 20 meters behind it
