Note: you can't walk from the airport to the city, you can only leave by car. You can take a taxi to the city, pay by taximeter. But it's cheaper by city bus

A very small airport. The staff helps us understand where to "run", as our plane took off later and we had to make a transfer. The toilets are clean. You can buy drinks and snacks.

Everything is normal. There is a lot of fast food, lots of toilets and smoking rooms on each floor. There's plenty of room for everyone. There is a hotel in Elaia within walking distance from the airport. Where can I comfortably wait out a long transfer

**Sharjah Airport is a convenient and comfortable hub for traveling in the UAE and beyond!** **✔ Advantages:** - **Convenient location** – located just 15 km from the center of Sharjah and 25 km from Dubai, making it an excellent alternative to busy Dubai airports. - **Fast service** – the small size of the terminals allows you to go through registration and passport control without long queues. - **Affordable prices for flights** – it is especially profitable to fly with low-cost airlines (Air Arabia and others). - **Cleanliness and order** – the airport is modern, with good infrastructure and a pleasant atmosphere. - **Wi-Fi and recreation areas** – free internet and comfortable places to wait for the flight. **❌ Small disadvantages:** - Fewer duty-free shops and restaurants compared to major Dubai airports. - Limited number of flights (mainly budget airlines). **The result:** **A great option for budget–conscious travelers** – If simplicity, speed and convenience are important to you without unnecessary luxury, Sharjah is a good choice! **⭐⭐⭐⭐**

A good airport, everything is clearly done, even without knowing the language it is always easy to find what you need. When making a ticket, you can ask for a place where you want to sit and if there is one, you will get it for free. Passport control can be carried out both through automatic turnstiles and through the staff and you will be given an exit stamp. Duty free is normal, there is a Russian-speaking staff. A food court where you can have a snack. And yes, you can safely carry water and no one takes it from you, both in plastic and in cans.

It's not immediately possible to figure it out. If you look at the scoreboard, the check-in desks will be on the right hand. Customs control is automatic. It is necessary to attach a passport, it does not read on the first attempt. After the inspection, there will be a duty free, then there will be no more. So if you want to buy something, then buy it right away. You go through it anyway. Where the boarding gates are, there is absolutely nothing except a small cafe. Sockets only with a local plug.

Nice big airport. You can pass the 8 hours of waiting by going to Dubai by bus in 1 hour and back in 1.5 hours due to traffic jams. In the Emirates, a lot has been done with real care for people. Passport control is one of the fastest.

It's a good airport, everything is very fast. BUT IT'S VERY COLD in the terminal. 16 degrees, if you have a transfer, you will be looking for a place to warm up. Otherwise, everything is fast and clear.

A small, and probably relevant, cheap duty-free zone.. in fact, one large "eatery" with many eateries like McDonald's, Subway e.t.c. and one large salon with perfume and other attributes. In the food shop, prices are indicated in local currency, but some stalls accept $. The prices in the salon with perfume are $. Yes, there is an exchange, if anyone needs it. I can't say anything objective about the course, because I don't know. Intuitively, as in all airports, the course is predatory. The duty-free zone itself is cool, even very cool. Everything is clean, it's nice to expect a landing. Inspection before boarding... everything is also standard.

It's a good airport. We flew through it to Bangkok. The air conditioners are working hard in the building, it's even too cool. There are free taps with drinking water. We spent 3 hours in the superior room. The hall is not bad, people appear in waves. There are hot and cold snacks, tea, coffee, pastries, and a small selection of alcohol.

Attentive and friendly staff, passport control without a border guard by attaching a passport to a reader and scanning the retina, there is no stamp in the passport, the inspection did not take away a bottle of water, clean waiting rooms, there are small points for buying tea and coffee, tea costs 9 dirhams a glass of 250 ml. A good duty-free shop, bought alcohol for the remaining dirhams, Lindt chocolate. A lot of perfumes, prices are like everywhere in duty-free.To summarize, an excellent new modern airport.

Excellent, thoughtful, convenient. There is a food court with reasonable prices. Large duty free. There are a lot of seats, there are reclining chairs. A huge plus is that there is Wi-Fi. Easy connection is not via a terminal and is not time-limited. Comfortable temperature in the waiting area. The cafe accepts euros, but the change is given in dirhams. There are a lot of employees in the hall who have written in the form: need help, ask me. Friendly attitude towards passengers. In general, everything is great. Of the disadvantages, perhaps only that it is difficult to find a working slot for charging the phone and the sockets do not fit our plugs

An ordinary airport. Not dirty and not clean. Low-cost airline. Khlodryga at the airport. They probably do it on purpose. They're being bullied. Take a sweater if you stay at the airport for a long time. It's really cold. It's not cool, it's cold. You will not be allowed to enter Delosal until 3 hours before boarding. They'll just turn it around on the door and say go for a walk, Vasya, before the time comes. You will sit and wait until they let you in at the end. There are a lot of people. A small airport. In general, it's basically fine. But why is it so cold in the hall?!

The airport is incomprehensible to passengers, everyone is so confused about where the exit is, where the entrance is, there are no air conditioners. It is stuffy and takes a long time due to the fact that there are few counters at the exit from the airport border control.

A small airport in Sharjah. Home to the airline AirArabia. It is convenient if you arrive on vacation in Sharjah or Ajman. There is nothing special at the airport. Places are not very clean and there are a lot of people (mostly people from India, Pakistan and Southeast Asia). You can see very colorful characters. Perhaps they look at us (fair-skinned blondes) the same way we look at burning Pakistanis :))). There is not much place to eat before departure. Except for Costa Coffee, where all the food is in single packages. I recommend it.

The airport is small and cozy. The check-in was conducted by an airport employee who gathered for our flight. Registration took place at three counters. A duty free store with a large selection of products. The waiting room is large, there are cafes and food. Alcohol is not for sale. If they knew, they would have taken it with them to relieve stress before the flight. The inspection of hand luggage was carried out before leaving the plane.

A small, inconvenient airport. We were there in transit for a couple of hours. All this time, the announcer's voice was mumbling ads every 30 seconds, and you can really get away with it. Most of the airport smelled bad. Duty free is very small and meager. There are only a few tiny stalls for snacks. In short, it's a kind of airport for beggars.

The airport is compact, everything would be faster with our check-in and baggage collection, and, importantly, our knowledge of English (at the hello-bye level))), it would be much faster. It took us 50 minutes to understand the check-in desk, and after all the operations, the luggage was already waiting for us with an airport employee))). In general, everything is comfortable, except for the Russian-speaking staff, but this is not necessary).

A small, cozy airport, "from the inside more than from the outside." The arrival and departure halls are small, all the main things begin after passing the control. There is already a full set here: duty free, and shops, and fast food, and exchangers, and VIP, and a hotel that few people know about and even fewer who will say (they usually send for the airport). The prices are too high, and the snack assortment is too poor, a snack is a snack. There is a smoking area, very tired

For those who arrive at this airport and the transfer is not included in the package, please note that it is better to take a taxi directly at the airport, but after crossing the road on the right there will be local taxi drivers in a row, it is with the inscriptions that taxi cars must be, otherwise you will be deceived and x3 will be the price tag for the price of those taxi drivers! They drive by the meter and don't take anything extra, but geth transfer and Karim are already so-so assistants. Karim does not enter the airport, the get transfer burns for only an hour (if the flight is suddenly delayed, then no one will wait for you). The exchangers at the airport are more or less successful in terms of the exchange rate, the Internet via Wi-Fi at the airport without a password, which is very convenient

A small, cozy airport. Passport control for departure takes about 20 seconds. However, upon arrival you will have to stand for 40 minutes. But for the first time. The prices in the cafe inside the airport are the same as in the city, so you don't have to worry before departure

It's a very small airport, and the flight flow is huge. I had to wait for the plane in a closed area most of the time standing up. There aren't enough places for everyone. The cafe is small and the price tag is very high. In Duty free, the choice is average. It is better not to come here much in advance

The airport is convenient. The boarding rules are confusing-they are called in rows and zones on the plane, not usual. There are few shops at the airport, there are exchange offices, toilets, and drinking fountains. There are enough places to wait for the flight. The navigation is clear and there are many consultants.

I read positive reviews about this terrible airport and wonder how anyone can like this place. I fly through it regularly for work, and every time I like it less and less. Dirty (toilets are a nightmare), there are no convenient places to wait for flights, especially at night - people sleep on tables in a bookstore, if they drink their terrible coffee for 500 rubles, they are kicked out of cafes, there are no normal cafes, the staff is rude and does not know how to behave. The airport is very small, the location of the exits is very stupid, there are no cafes or anything at the exits. The business lounge is one name, the food is a nightmare, the choice is small and only Arabic cuisine, do not risk it with hummus, it is almost always sour, what they do with omelets, we still do not understand) the staff in the business lounge at the reception is arrogant, reminiscent of Soviet guards, neither hello nor goodbye. They really like to block half of the business hall, so that people are forced to sit at tables in cafes, there are not enough seats on chairs, and they also like to close half of the cubicles in the toilets so that everyone lines up in long queues. In general, if you want to go there, try to fly as soon as possible) by the way, I will say that I even like the airport in Bangladesh in Dhaka better, at least there are friendly and adequate staff)

The boarding gate board does not match, be careful and always approach the staff who have scanners in their hands. Give me a ticket to scan, the Gate is changed very often, but it is not displayed on the scoreboard yet. The airport is large, in case of a hitch, you may not get on your flight. In front of the sleeve, right in front of the entrance to the supermarket, employees can come up with scales and weigh their hand luggage. When I was with the passenger, he bought a dutiful product, which increased his carry-on baggage by 2 kg. As a result, the fine is $70, so pay attention to the weight of hand luggage in Sharjah even during transit. As it is, the airport is very large and has positive energy.

In general, it is a good compact airport, everything is quite clear in logistics, there were no special problems during the transfer, I quickly found a transition, local services-employees speak English, you can safely clarify the information. There is a food court area, I recommend walking around and comparing prices, complex breakfasts and lunches can be cheaper than one sandwich, as well as coffee and water, there are free coolers, coffee vending machines if the flight is waiting a long time in the transit zone.

In general, the rating is "good": there is no crowd, everything is very fast, customs without customs officers). A wonderful footcourt, but the payment is only in dirhams! It is not conveniently located - far away, taking into account the traffic, it is a long and far drive. Very, very modest duty free and, as in all, everything is more expensive than you can buy in stores, marketplaces. We were surprised by the sound of flights by people walking around the halls, I did not hear the speakerphone).

A great airport, on arrival, despite the fact that my daughter is already 9 years old, she was sent to a separate queue at customs (we have privileges only up to 5 years old), everything is clear and fast. The zone departs is also competently made, after check-in for the flight, without inspection you get into the duty free zone and a cafe, there is an opportunity to pour free water into a bottle and cups for those who do not have bottles, there is a waiting area for families with children, and the inspection is already underway before boarding, and there is also an opportunity to buy water for 1 dirham (approximately 23 rubles) and there is also an opportunity to drink and pour water for free (in Domodedovo at least 170 rubles of water). In general, everything is done for people. Even in the pharmacy, prices are like in the city.
