UAE’s largest airline, Emirates expects to witness a surge in passengers numbers streaming through Dubai International (DXB) over the New Year weekend and the holidays season. 

The airline in its statement revealed that with nearly 1 million travelers departing from and arriving in Dubai, the peak phase starts on December 30, 2021, and it will last through January 10, 2022.

In line with Emirates and DXB’s health precautions and to ensure the safety of the general public, only passengers with valid tickets will be allowed into the terminal. UAE citizens and residents, as well as global passengers traveling from Dubai to the global network of Emirates throughout the busy period, are encouraged to follow the airline’s guidelines for a smoother, and hassle-free travel journey.

Check-in options

Emirates’ customers may check-in as early as 24 hours before their flight departure using the 32 self-service bag drop machines and 16 check-in kiosks available at Terminal 3, or Emirates’ check-in desks. Passengers traveling to the US can check-in 12 hours before departure at Emirates’ check-in desks.

Located adjacent to the Terminal 3 car park area in Zone C, passengers can also use the car park check-in facility from 24 hours and up to six hours before departure.
