Emirates Terminal

Arleitter · Jun 10th, 2009, 08:16 AM

How many of you have been through there?

My first visit to Dubai was on Emirates Airlines and I passed through Gate -3.The terminal is amazing .The massive structure is clean to the very end,and a great thing to watch.The only thing is it's very much deserted at many palces.

.This is exclusively for Emirates flights to any destination in the world.

Its beautiful man, i have seen it so many times, gosh, its a beautifully architect really, the connected flights passegers are really njoying it, you will get hotels, gyms, and all there and you will get spa as well in.. its huge.. They have made it underground, when you are boarding to the plane, at that time you will be out of the ground.. if m not wrong.

I did not check that.Is it an underground one?May be you are right.In the serene beauty of this massive structure,I would have forgotten to check it.

I have not been to Dubai airport yet. But yes UAE sets standards for cleanliness. Its a very clean country.

Arleitter · Jun 10th, 2009, 08:33 AM

I feel it's one of the most clean cities I have ever been to in this world.

Hanoi,Colombo,Bangkok,Mali sucks.............

^ Ever been to Abu Dhabi? Abu Dhabi is more clean compared to Dubai.

Arleitter · Jun 10th, 2009, 08:44 AM

No.I have not been to Abu Dhabi.

FairyTale · Jun 10th, 2009, 08:45 AM

Okay then you should see the standard of cleanliness here. Being it a capital they have kept it more organised, clean and less congested.

Arleitter · Jun 10th, 2009, 08:48 AM

Yes,I will definitely try but I have heard that there are restrictions in place in Abu Dhabi.Am I right?

Arleitter I had the pleasure of driving a freind to the new Emirates terminal at 4 in the morning after it had been open only for a week- we were disguted to say the least that at 4 am- the place was deserted with no security measures at all- there was hardly a soul about and the Arab so called security chaps as they walked to their shift did not even acknowledge 2 damsels in distress with suitcases and obviously perplexed- anyway in terms of its design- very very nice- gleamingly clean and well planned.... certainly gives passengers a feeling of a superior ambience compared to its other terminals......

FairyTale · Jun 10th, 2009, 08:56 AM

^^ what kind of restrictions?

Arleitter · Jun 10th, 2009, 08:58 AM

Yes,even I also felt the same thing which you felt.I think the reason behind its emptiness are,this terimnal is exclusive for Emirates Airlines and the timings you arrive there.(At odd timings,you may not find much crowd,just like any other place),but I landed in Dubai in the morning and inside the terminal it was almost deserted!!!

hmmm well there is strictness in Abu Dhabi but i believe it would be same in Dubai too. Well anyway are you coming here to break some laws , some violations or what ?

Aisha Dubaiwali · Jun 10th, 2009, 09:03 AM

Fairytale you are truly living in a fairytale.. are you kidding me? abu dhahbi less congested than Dubai??? there is HARDLY ANY PARKING THERE!!! and the buildings are 10 15 20 years old AND FREAKING DIRTY!!!!!!!!!!!! there is LITTER EVERYWHERE!!!!

Abu Dhahbi just copies whatever Dubai does, and in no way is it better or cleaner than Dubai

Gujjar Badshah the terminal is NOT underground..... It is on GROUND level....

FairyTale · Jun 10th, 2009, 09:06 AM

lol aisha i am talking about Abu Dhabi not abt Sharjah. read my post again.

Aisha Dubaiwali · Jun 10th, 2009, 09:07 AM

^I am talking about Abu Dhabhi too. Have you seen Electra street?? Have you seen how congested it is?? There is NO parking WHATSOEVER!!! Abu Dhahbi is just slightly better than Sharjah. It is nowhere near as clean as Dubai. After Dubai the cleanest city would be Al Ain.
