When did waiting for a plane become this much fun? Dubai International Airport (DXB) is an entertainment destination in its own right – with plenty of opportunities to shop, dine and relax before you begin your travels.
Explore an amazing array of retail outlets across the airport’s three terminals. Shop high fashion at Chanel, Jimmy Choo and Gucci, grab last-minute essentials at Boots, Spinneys and Carrefour Market, and head to Dubai Duty Free to browse everything from jewellery and perfumes to books and electronics.
Foodies are in for a treat at DXB, where you’ll find sumptuous dishes to satisfy any craving. Tuck into flavourful Indian bites at Desi Lunch Box, healthy deli items at Jones The Grocer, top Lebanese fare at Comptoir Libanais, delightful Italian cuisine at Bottega, juicy burgers at Shake Shack and so much more.
Enter a new realm of exclusivity with the airport's premium lounges, which offer everything from juice bars and live cooking stations to dedicated butlers and baristas. The lounges also host a range of business services, if you're looking to catch up on work.
Before heading into the skies, go for a stress-melting massage at Be Relax, XpresSpa or Timeless Spa. You can also enjoy a swim or gym session at Dubai International Hotel, let your little ones burn off some energy at the Kids Zone in Terminal 3, or take a well-deserved snooze in the peaceful sleep ‘n’ fly lounges.
