    One of the best airports in the world. Gotta love the wi-fi or lie they call it WOW-FI!

    Very nice airport. Annoying sometimes when you have to walk for hours to get to your flight. But otherwise, it's huge and has all the facilities that you can ask for at an airport. Probably much more

    All hail the greatest airport in gcc ( I haven't checked the new Doha airport yet). Try to squeeze yourself into the business lounge. 9/10

    Be careful with ur connecting flight timings while traveling with Emirates it should be at least 2+ hours. Reason ur first flight may land at concourse A where ur 2nd flight can be from concourse C.

    If you're looking for somewhere quiet (to sleep, stretch etc) I found a little oasis in an empty wing of the airport - includes a plug point, washrooms and drinking fountain.

    Don't forget to pick the VIP taxi service instead of the normal one.. There is not much difference between them. VIP taxi is more comfortable and clean. 30 to 50 dhs is the difference. Enjoy!

    Fantastic airport. Great shopping and food (Shake Shack!). Free hotel room if you fly Emirates and have an 8+ hour layover.

    The staffs are helpful but the taxi is really expensive. You can buy a silver transport card at the convenience store.

    This is one of biggest AP as I visited, Emirates terminal is 3 and it is very big. If you need transfer at here, u had better find terminal earlier.

    Check-in line can be long even 2.5 hours before your flight. A3 Gate doesn't let you bring in a cup of coffee even if you bought it from gate area, all drinks you buy must be sealed b4 entering A3.
  • Melis Ç.
    It is quite big but not fascinating. In every floor and in each section they have duty free shops. Just use self check in if you want to save some time for shopping.

    A great airport but sometimes the long walk is unnecessary. Always make sure your connecting flight is 2hrs apart.

    The airport has three gate areas, A to C. Check the boards for transit times. Most of the shops are present in all three areas so no need to worry about missing shopping.

    Make sure you arrive 2 hrs before. The que might be long to enter the airport + the security screening.The distance from the check-in point to the gates terminal is quite far.Arrive early to enjoy it!

    Fast and efficient. Good experience always. Airport looks like a mall ... stunning! Check out the electronics store unless you're going into Dubai (prices are better).

    Get ready for excellence, also for long walk .. Try to have the elevator instead of escalator 😅.. Enjoy the stay

    Bit of a niche tip, but if you’re on a connecting flight, the waiting area between the elevators and the train to the B and C Gates has the best toilets. Located next to the Costa, nobody there/no Q

    For terminal 1 Arrive at least 45 min before boarding time if you boarding pass and 2 hours if without. The walking distance from drop off till check in is a lot with metro transfer and all.

    If you have a long layover and can get through customs in a reasonable time, the metro station is here and can take you into the city for some sightseeing

    For long layovers, If you want a bath, there's a shower room near the A gates near sleep n' fly beside the coffee shop, you just need to bring your own towels and toiletries.

    Book Marhaba service if you want quicker departure access through bag drop, immigration. Costs a little bit extra but worth it.

    For me the best airport in the world! If you can get an e-gate card. It will save you the queues when you arrive or leave immigration.

    The baby rooms here are very good! Best to knock on them as the baby room was full of staff from makeup or jewellery counters having a break

    Clean, big and good in general. Frankly speaking I expected much more from famous duty free, but it is jus combination of several shops selling same goods as everywhere. Wi-Fi is free only for 1 hour.
