3-5 hour stopovers
Long passport control queues and heavy traffic near the airport make it risky to leave the terminal and come back again if you’ve only got three to four hours to spare between flights.
If you'd rather not have a stress-free stopover, then we recommend checking our Inside the Airport section for ideas of how to spend your transit time.
Then again, this is Dubai, and if you have even a little extra time on your hands then you might want to get out and see what all the fuss is about. Read about Leaving the Airport for our ideas.
