If you are planning to travel out from Dubai airport between Thursday, December 18 and Monday December 22, 2014, you should prepare for long lines and possible delays. December 19 2014 is expected to be the busiest day for travel at Dubai Airport.
The Dubai Airport authorities are advising passengers to leave home at least three hours before the departure of the flight. Try to reach the airport early and say goodbyes at home rather than having friends and family drop you off at the airport. Besides, it is best to check the airline’s baggage allowance and pack accordingly. Re-packing at the check-in counter causes anxiety and delays.
Checking in online and using the e-gate card are also ways of ensuring that your trip goes smoothly.
Emirates Airlines is expecting 80,000 passengers will fly out from Dubai on December 19, 2014 on their 240 flights. Top destinations out of Dubai include London, Bangkok, Mumbai, Singapore, Paris and Karachi. If you are traveling as a tourist, be sure to download the Irhal app before you leave.
