    One of the nicest airports...cool shopping area, restaurants and coffee places. Nothing beats the emirates lounges though..it's another world up there! Oh..and free wifi :)

    Very convenient floor layout. Lots of shopping through the middle aisle! If you're tired and need a short nap, go to the outer aisles and u'll find some comfy laid-back seats for just that!

    It's worth it to fly business / first class on Emirates coz the dedicated lounges on T3 are huge and well equipped with all the amenities a tired traveller needs.

    The main walkway through the shops is really busy. To get away from the crowds walk behind the shops there are less people moving around there.

    Residents, passengers who can apply for on arrival visas and GCC locals can use the smart gate on the right and left sides, it takes me 15 seconds to pass the passport control section, no more queues!

    Quiet. Peaceful. Silent. T3 has a feel of Dubai Mall. Head to Tapaz Bar to get away from the crowd.

    The requisite starting point for every Dubai pilgrimage, Terminal 3 compliments the emirate's 'we-can-build-it-bigger-and-better-than-thou' philosophy. Restaurants and shops are all top notch.

    One of the main reasons to keep on flying on Emirates when coming to dubai is this terminal, its never overcrowded and the services surpass the other terminals.

    When going to terminal 1 take the free shuttle service that can be found on the departure side main road. Look for a white mini bus with valtrans logo on it. The ride will take you 3 mins. to be there

    Be always ready to check your tax returns items before immigration. After security points, if your items are not fully checked, you'll not be able to refund all the tax 💔

    If you ever have issues and you travel with a small air company that doesn't have a proper office desk, then ask anyone about DNATA as that entity will help you out

    If you travel via UAE airports often then get your e-gate card and avoid the queues. Shouldn't take more than 20 minutes to issue

    Soooooo crowded early morning - walk down the corridors by the windows. It's just too squashed and miserable down the main corridor; too many shops squeezed in...

    A modern marvel, but mostly a claustrophobic souq demanding you buy before you fly. Escape to prayer room or quiet end terminal for respite
