Smart Gates for Swift Passport Control:
Speed up your passage through passport control using Smart Gates. These gates utilize facial and iris recognition technology, skipping the need for exit stamps. Make sure you’re eligible – registered passengers above 1.2 meters, including UAE citizens, residents, and more, can use Smart Gates.
Metro Magic:
Dodge traffic by hopping on the Dubai Metro, stationed at Terminals 1 and 3. Remember to carry your nol card and stick to baggage limits: one large and one small suitcase per passenger.
Parking Wisdom:
If you’re being picked up, guide your friends and family to parking areas, as the Arrivals terminal entrances are reserved for authorized vehicles. Terminal 1 and 3 offer premium and economy parking options, while Terminal 2 provides both premium and economy options as well.
Taxi Tactics:
After collecting your bags, follow taxi signs for quick rides. RTA airport taxis begin at Dh25. If you prefer private taxis like Careem or Uber, separate lanes are available. Limo service from Dubai Taxi Corporation is also an option, starting at Dh25, with the fare at Dh3.67 per kilometer.
