Travel updates

Several countries have implemented travel entry restrictions and/or enhanced screening measures due to the Ebola virus. 

We advise customers to check the entry requirements of their destination country via official government channels.

UAE entry restrictions 

The UAE does not allow entry to travellers who have recently been in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Uganda, or South Sudan, unless the traveller has been outside of these countries for more than 21 days.

Travellers who are transiting through the UAE are required to comply with the travel entry measures of their final destination. 

The entry and transit restrictions apply to all travellers, even those arriving by indirect routings.

We’re transforming our First Class Lounge on Concourse C in Terminal 3 at Dubai International Airport. While we make these improvements, the lounge will be closed. You can enjoy our full lounge experience on Concourse B.  

We’re sorry for the inconvenience.
