Emirates is expecting a high volume of passengers travelling from Dubai during the December peak travel season. Please arrive at least three hours before your departure from Dubai and be at your boarding gate at least 60 minutes before departure. During peak travel periods, it may take longer than usual to pass through security and immigration and to reach your gate.

We also recommend arriving by Dubai Metro to avoid traffic congestion.

Check in online or on Emirates app and select your seats
Check in and drop your bags 24 hours before departure, or 12 hours ahead for US flights
