Flights from Asia to the United Arab Emirates: the best tips from KAYAK users

Insights shared by verified travellers who flew the route from Asia to the United Arab Emirates 
Verified travelerFlew with Emirates-Sep 2026
Although the airport at Bishkek was small, additional time to check in was required since online boarding pass was not available and I had to wait at the counter to check in.
Verified travelerFlew with Etihad Airways-Jul 2026
If flying through Abu Dhabi, bring a sweatshirt or jacket. The airport is chilly
Verified travelerFlew with Pakistan International Airlines-Jan 2026
I would try to avoid the first couple of weeks of January to travel due to generally very high fog. If you can just buy return tickets from Islamabad that would be the best.
MohsinFlew with Emirates-Feb 2026
Reach the airport 4 hours before the flight. When I was travelling, the Lahore airport was super jam-packed, and it took me 2 hours to check in
HaroldFlew with Etihad Airways-Dec 2025
Make sure you arrive early because they will start boarding early.
SahibFlew with Wizz Air-Jun 2025
If you book this flight make sure bring enough water or drinks and food because not only they charge for everything but charge extremely high price!
SoosnataFlew with Etihad Airways-Mar 2025
Probably dine at the airport ahead of a red-eye, options can be limited onboard.
MohsinFlew with Pakistan International Airlines-Dec 2024
download movies on your Netflix, put your ear pods , bring your neck pillow and enjoy the flight
Verified travelerFlew with Emirates-Feb 2025
there isn’t enough time between flights to make the transfer in Dubai to the flight home to LAX. I asked at the gate when I arrived in Kochi. I said I was not going to be able to run to me a deadline for boarding. I had an hour and 25 minutes to go to another terminal. I asked the ticket agent at the airport I checked in to get me a wheelchair in Dubai to move me from arrivals to the next international departure. I had a wonderful wheelchair driver. I never could’ve done what he did. I was only able to get on the plane immediately before the door closed
WoeiFlew with Emirates-Feb 2025
If flying flydubai, have light carry on and a jumper or winter coat. There’s stairs and long bus ride in a freezing bus
ShakeelFlew with Etihad Airways-Sep 2024
At Abu Dhabi special checking of US travelers to Old Airport instead of New one and passengers transferred by bus to old airport.
Malik QamarFlew with Etihad Airways-Sep 2024
If is possible take a etihad flight which has a Immigration clearance at Abu Dhabi Airport
Verified travelerFlew with Emirates-Nov 2024
Arrive 4-5 hours ahead instead of recommended 3 hours to be first in the line to check in bags. The checkin and emigration took almost 2 and half hours. The emigration at Hyderabad airport is unnecessary and most staff are slow in processing leaving us no time to relax at the gate
Verified travelerFlew with Emirates-Aug 2024
If you have a transfer in Dubai and plan to leave the airport in Du ai, don't purchase at the Duty Free in Shanghai. Wait until you re-enter the airport in Dubai
KannanFlew with Emirates-Apr 2024
If you have a connecting flight with a short transit time, check in online and get a seat near the front. Else it can take a while just getting off the plane.
RamachandraFlew with Emirates-Jan 2024
Get to airport sooner for check-in and baggage drop.
JeffFlew with Etihad Airways-Feb 2024
Beware hidden charges (as with seating charges) which escalate the overall cost of the flights.

The staff were fantastic and the food was tasty. My check in experience was good too.

The on boarding process at the airport was confusing with no order set in place. So passengers were creating their own lines. Taking the bus to the plane as a bit cumbersome. Once in the plane, the flight attendants were tentative and friendly. Seats were comfortable and food was okay.

Old 777 on this route uncomfortable and in need of updating.

Service was great. Food was perfect. My mom needed a wheelchair and I was worried that I will miss the connecting flight. Emirates ground staff and wheelchair staff ensured we get to our gate on time.

Business boarding is too messy, if can be systematic will be better

Although lauded as a superior carrier, I found nothing out of the ordinary about the flight. Even in the AirBus 380, there wasn't much space in economy - especially when the seat in front was reclined. Admittedly, the toilet was more spacious than I've ever seen on an airplane, but the ill-fitting divider between the cubicles left a visible slit that was quite disconcerting. The crew were ok, but they were clearly "just doing their job." There was little enthusiasm - although given the number of the passengers, I'm not surprised they were jaded. I'd fly Emirates again, but I don't hold them above other carriers.

Frankfurt airport was awful! Brand new airport with modern technology but a process that does not keep up at all. Attitude of staff at the airport also disgraceful but that is normal in Germany. One security gate in the middle of Monday and machine clearly not working well. Immigration has 2 staff with serious attitude.

On time, organized boarding, good food and entertainment-plane was clean, comfortable, well-maintained and updated.

Timeliness seems to be optional. Flight was 30 min late despite not coming from anywhere else prior. Information on flight status boards in the airport continued to show “on time” despite being passed the time it should have left.

Due to delayed flight we missed our connection flight to Amsterdam. Though Emirates have rebooked in next day's morning flight, to get the hotel voucher etc could have been improved. We have waited for nearly 2 hours to get the hotel arrangements. Even some Emirates officials were asking why hotel voucher was not provided at the embarking point. However the hotel and food was excellent.Due to lot of flight disruptions huge crowds were present in front of Dubai connect as everybody was asked to contact Dubai connect office. Some better arrangments are to be thought of

I was mislead in the booking thinking I was purchasing via kayak however underpricer was the ticket vendor and I did not have access to seat selection, wifi or the lounge at the airport with my business class ticket for this reason. I did know know these issues were going to occur when I bought the ticket, I was very displeased

Over all good experience. Cabin crew should have been more attentive and the food quality should improve.

The first segment from Atlanta to Abu Dhabi was fantastic, but we got downgraded to a different aircraft from Abu Dhabi to Delhi. We were supposed to be on a flatbed business class when we booked it but just about one week before travel, we were changed to A321 Neo, which just has old-fashioned business class seats that recline but don’t go flat. While I fully understand that sometimes these changes have to be made for operational reasons, but I asked for some credit or compensation for that and I did not get any anywhere with that

Luggage jandling sucks. I arrived in BLR india on 15th and luggage was delivered today 19th. I came for a business trip everything got screwed up. Poor communication. APP kept saying mishandles in BLR. It never reached BLR. I had air tag which showed luggage was in Germany. I could not reach anybody other than the airpprt people. They had no clue and asked me to call etihad. In India etihad number wasnt working.i had to call US number and that person was the only person who seemed to help. They kept me in dark. No communication or email till i spoke to the person in US.i have flown many airlines but never had this experience. For me this was first and will be last in etihad. Very bad.

The food was nice and the toilets were kept clean. I find the cabin bag policy to be ludicrous though, there's no way someone can have a small personal item and carry-on cabin bag weighing <7kg if you need to take a laptop with you, meds, and any valuables and items you can't risk to leave in a cargo bag that may get left behind

Crew from ground is great but the aircraft is small and last 3 rows luggage section was occupied by crew so no space for travelers. Food was OK

Awful , hidden charges for the luggage was a very awful thing, very much a scam , booking the flight thinking the luggage was included was definitely a scam , then the girl that was taking my luggage Ayrlease the airport was an absolute awful , telling me if I don’t have money to take my luggage with me I can just throw it away , how professional, NEVER AGAIN .

Connection booked by Etihad was delayed and upon arrival to counter they closed it and denied boarding although there was still 15 minutes to go . Manager Karen was very rude and did not want to listen seems there as overbooking and canceling boarding was the only solution..

The staff was excellent. They checked on my needs at the appropriate amount, letting me sleep when I needed, checking up when I was awake.

Doubled charged me for luggage and lost $520, dug much into my travel budget.

Passengers seemed to ignore zone boarding which added some chaos. Actual flight was fine. CebPac charges for water and snacks. De-boarding involved steps from a plane, then a bus and a very long ride to the terminal. Baggage signage was updated after luggage came on the carousel, so this was confusing.

Super delayed. Delayed to get the bus, delayed to get off the bus, delayed to take off.

Kind of worried due to typhoon but yeah we can't do about nature thing. So okay naman kudos to all crews and pilots for the safe landing.

Delays on the tarmac, uncomfortable even after paying extra for premium seats. Bags lost in transit, no compensation provided

"usual delay" for an hour.. they are usually missing punctuality.

i liked that the flight crew noticed my discomfort with the small leg space (I'm 6'2") and offered the emergency row. The fight attendants were very friendly, a definite strength with Cebu Pacific. I didn't like the leg space in my original seating.

Terrible, I will never ever ever attempt to fly on Cebu Pacific. I understand that it’s a cheap flight option but they take cheap experience to the next level.

the process of paying for the excess baggage weight, the check in process and the boarding process are subhuman. this is an airline devoid of customer service

I was rebook by the other airpott because of the delayed flight

Poor service in Bangkok. Flight attendant is not friendly. You have to buy everything like water and coffee. Expecting for International should have free food or free snacks.

Flight boarding experience with journey was smooth; can describe it as a less to minimal turbulent flight!

Electronic check in is must these days. Food could be better.

Although we took the XL seats with more width, we found that you do not have a seat in front to stow your personal item, nor can you stretch your legs. This is not the best option for a comfortable seat. Boarding was timely but disorganized without any row based entry.

Please don’t send survey questions on Indigo flights. 90% of booking, check in, Boarding work is done by the passenger. So those questions are irrelevant

Worst. Did not feel like it's an international flight.

Wife and I were seated in separate seats across the aisle

Flight was inordinately delayed, which has become normal with Indigo. Crews were inattentive. After landing there was a lot of time for arrival of chek in baggage

Not much food options, entertainment, crew just ignores your request. The crew is not trained at all at hospitality. No wonder why people talk rudely to Indigo crew.

Liked the XL seat, but didn't like the check-in process at the Delhi Airport gate 5B. Though I had paid for the priority boarding, there was mad rush at the gate and allowed whoever with might pushed in. Then at the gate we were picked up for compulsory checkin the hand baggage as the flight was full. There were any with more than 2 bags and massive cabin baggage. But they didn't dare to stop them.. Overall a very badly managed check-in process.

Check in is a mess. Be ready for a traumatic experience from the unsupportive and rude check in staffs and duty managers at Calicut airport. It’s a chaos and the lines are mostly first in last out, as they don’t care of the passenger well being or the waiting time. They are just concerned of checking in before the boarding call. Personal experience is of standing 2 hours straight just for check in. Flight is ok, food preordered are all the instant ones with hot water mix, which tastes pathetic. Overall, will never take another indigo flight to fly out of india.

They didnt chack the vise for Vietnam (they chaked but sad its was great and then when web had problem, NO Service they didnt unser my messes

Kayak offered terrible customer service. The 2nd of 3 flights were cancelled and it took me an hour on the phone to try to cancel the other 2. I had to call back later to get someone to assist. I was calling internationally and an already stressful situation was made worse.

Moderate carrier , one of the flight attendant crashed my leg with the food table and never bothered to apologia but give you a lecture about how to sit in your seat.

No TVs are working, in my local busses also not work sometimes. Is the both are same,,

If I have a choice I would not use this airline. They moved by booking to Smart Wings, an airline they code share with. Changing terminals in buses and dealing with some of the staff associated with it is not the best experience. Having stated that I must share that the crew of Smart Wings airlines was polite.

Consider serving food to all passengers regardless of food reservation status during booking.

This was a smartwings operated flight. Flydubai is no longer value for money. Their prices are as high as emirates whereas delays, services and overall quality is as low as any other low cost carrier.

The only highlight on this flight was the taste of the food, which was surprisingly good. Everything else was below average, and the cabin crew service especially stood out for being slow and inattentive. We were surrounded by toddlers/babies and it made our 4 hour flight feel like 10 hours. Granted, that's not the airline's fault, but it added to the overall subpar experience.

Second-row economy doesn't have leg space if you are 6 feet
