Dubai International Airport
مطار دبي الدولي
Dubai International (DXB) is Dubai's main airport and one of the world's busiest by international passenger traffic. It's the home hub of Emirates and flydubai, which is why so many connecting flights route through DXB — many journeys from Europe to Asia and Oceania go via Dubai.
The airport sits just 5 km from Downtown, effectively within the city itself — the ride from the gate to your hotel takes less time here than in many other world capitals.
| Metro | 15–35 мин | Red Line, stations at Terminals 1 and 3; frequent service, connects to Downtown and Dubai Marina. | |
| Taxi | 15–40 мин | Taxi ranks at every terminal, metered fares; travel time depends on traffic and destination. | |
| Transfer | A pre-booked transfer meets you in the arrivals area with a name board — handy with heavy luggage or a late flight. | ||
| Car rental | Rental car desks are located in the arrivals area of each terminal. |
Each terminal has covered multi-level parking with hourly and daily rates; for several days it's cheaper to use the remote long-stay car parks with a shuttle to the terminal. Valet parking is available at Terminal 3.
Three terminals: Terminal 3 is one of the largest terminal buildings in the world and serves Emirates flights only; Terminal 1 handles most other foreign carriers; Terminal 2 is mostly used by flydubai and budget routes. Inside are the Dubai Duty Free shops, dozens of cafes and restaurants, business and first-class lounges, a capsule hotel and showers in the transit area.
