So-so, if you don't know the language, it's difficult, especially at the airport. There is a lot of space, compared to those flying away. You can apply for a taxi, right at the airport, but for this you need to buy a store and tell the taxi company. Be prepared to be told to show the product that was purchased by taxi

A small airport specifically for Russians, apparently. There is no food/water or anything else before the check, just a small waiting area. In the clean zone (hooray!) There's a whole McDonald's and some other coffee shop. I'm glad that at least there are phone chargers in front of the gates.

We arrived almost 3 hours before departure, and at the check-in desk we were assured that the seats in the 1st row of the housekeeper were occupied by babies, and therefore pregnant women and children could not be seated. In fact, when boarding the plane, there was 1 baby sitting there and all the others were teenagers about 16 years old. There was also no way to buy these seats either in advance or at the airport. Karma to you and all the best employees of the racks :)
There is no proper food at the airport itself, the duty free is terribly small and the shelves are half empty, or there is an overpayment for low-quality goods.
Upon arrival, you will also find a huge queue at 3 o'clock and a small room. The worst airport I've ever been to. We flew on a regular Aeroflot flight, the ticket price was 150,000rubles round trip and such a horror. I am attaching a photo.

There are always long queues at passport control on arrival, and everything is much faster for departure. A good exchanger, the exchange rate is quite a bit lower than in the city.
Large free parking in front of the terminal. The duty free is small.

A pleasant airport, despite its distance from the city. Spacious, good duty-free, not so many people. However, my departure was not announced, so I advise you to follow the scoreboard yourself so as not to miss it.

One day it may be the largest and most beautiful airport, but for now I can't say anything good about it: upon arrival, we stood in line for an hour at passport control, only a few employees took passengers on all arriving and arriving planes. to give them their due, the staff is friendly and welcoming. The rooms are nondescript, the toilets are not very clean. Everything is much safer in the departure area.

The airport is for Russians. A huge half-empty building, which later, as they say, will become one of the largest airports in the world. But that's later. There's nothing here right now. Registration and passport control are very fast. After the inspection area, there are only 2 stores with the same assortment. There is no Dubai chocolate. Buy it in advance. Perfect toilets (just like everywhere else in Dubai).

The airport itself is not big. Of the disadvantages, there is a poor choice of cafes, but in general the airport is like an airport. I didn't come here to eat.
But the most inconvenient thing is transportation. If you do not take a taxi or transfer, but want to drive yourself. There is 1 regular bus to the metro, which runs quite often, every 10-15 minutes, but stops at every pillar. As a result, it's almost an hour to the subway.

A nice fresh ordinary airport, everything is there, there is a lot of space
Not Dubai International or the new Istanbul airport at all, rather something between Sochi and Domodedovo airports

It's a good airport because it's small, but it's far from the city, which is a minus. Plus, there are few people, a good dutik, you can buy souvenirs if you don't have time. There is the cheapest McDonald's in the world where you can eat a set for the price of coffee.

A compact new airport, there is practically no need to walk - you can arrive right next to the departure)
Yes, it is located at a distance from the city, but it is easy to get to the center of Dubai by bus 55 - during the day to the subway, and at night to the end point)
Convenient electronic passport control - Smart Gate

The airport seems to be huge in terms of territory, but inside the building, it feels like it is secondary to Dubai - low ceilings, small (rather small) duty, only two cafes (one of them is McDon) and generally sparsely populated, which is rather a plus.

I flew from this airport to Moscow at the end of December, in principle, everything is convenient, it is clear that there are no complaints about the staff. There are a lot of Russian tourists, so if necessary, you can ask for some nuances, but in general everything is clear.

Everything is fine, except for the attractions with a free SIM card for a day, issued by kind border guards upon arrival. It is not activated by the word "at all". During installation, the phone does not see it.
The employees at the exit send you to the left, to the Du counter, and at the Du counter you are too lazy to activate it for free, he says that the registration from the border guards has not yet passed.
Therefore, we immediately buy a new 2GB one inexpensively and calmly move in all directions!

Everything is top-notch in the UAE, so here too, But this is a cargo terminal , this is a warehouse where flights from the Russian Federation have been added, well, a couple more countries have low-quality airlines, toilets are in terrible condition, this is the first time I saw such a thing in the UAE, one McDonald's cafe for the entire airport, staff paragraph, one duty store Free , the level of the station stall , and that 's it , you can buy one soda machine .

Everything would be fine if it weren't for the distance of 50 km, by taxi from $ 50 to some Business Bay, not even to the center of Dubai. I would prefer DXB, but Al Maktoum is huge, and from the Russian Federation, as far as I understand, flights are mainly to it. I even took it specially to DXB - as a result, the Aeroflot flight changed again to Almaktum

Airport -antistress )) At first, I thought it was very bad that Ural Airlines flew to such a small airport, but then I appreciated the advantages. There are no traffic jams at the entrance and exit, no queues, no crowds, quiet, calm. Everything else that should be at an international airport is there. Clean, comfortable, pleasant. I even liked Duty free.

The airport is clean and empty. It is long and expensive to get to it, keep this in mind.
Duty free is very small, the choice is accordingly also very limited.
As a plus, customs and check-in are quickly completed. There are no teletraps, they are taking a bus to the plane.

The new terminal, the queue was for five or seven minutes.
It's fast. There are no restaurants in the departure lounge, just a poppy and a couple of sandwich shops. The price of beer is beyond comprehension. For 4 glasses of regular draft beer, $66.

A small, quiet airport, duty free is good, perfume prices are lower than in Dubai stores. There are discounts on dates. It is convenient because it is compact, toilet, duty free , food, departure areas, do not get confused. The seats are comfortable, soft, comfortable, and have a homely atmosphere.inside of Macdonald's food.

The airport has sunk into my soul because it is very empty, unlike DXB. It always turned out that I flew in DXB Terminal 2, which is absolutely no different from this airport inside. A huge number of taxi drivers at the exit. The only drawback is that it is far from the city, so the taxi is expensive. The average is 150-200 dirhams. If you live further than Downtown, it is possible that more.

It is a very convenient airport because there are practically no people, do not expect any significant purchases from it, as of the time of writing this review, you could safely arrive in an hour and a half and still have some free time. Everything went through very quickly, there is a necessary minimum here. Well, as usual in Dubai, everyone loves you, everyone communicates very warmly.

Not a bad, small airport. There is no security at the entrance.
"Local" Russians are rushing around and offering to earn money on the transportation of Sony play station (1 console in 1 hand luggage, they say you get 5 tr upon arrival), but I did not check on myself.
A dutik is more expensive than upon arrival at the same airport)
We took off at Moscow time .
Customs both at the entrance and at the exit is automatic), they do not put stamps, the scanner works)! Super fast, no queues, but that's if you haven't arrived for the first time)

It's just like everywhere else. The main difference is that when you go to the far exit (we had 22), you won't be able to get out at all. Your spine is torn off and you enter the departure area of your flight.
There is a toilet and tap water, but food and Duty Free will be left out. So first the shopping, and then the departure desk.,
There are sockets for charging gadgets.

The airport is clean and empty, we stop at the Marina and for us it turned out to be more convenient than the central one 20 minutes by car, an hour from the central one. But the problem is with food and convenience stores... No Starbucks, just Mac and Costa, which we didn't like.

This is the second airport in Dubai, the one that is smaller. If you don't understand English, there are employees who speak Russian. The airport is clean, navigation is clear even in English. There are small cafeterias, Dutch fries. Comfortable seats in the waiting areas. Places for charging phones with adapted sockets.

It is quite compact, far from the city. Towards the exit to Abu Dhabi. Registration is slow, passport control is fast, taking into account the biometric passport. Dutifrey is small, so far only McDonald's and Costa coffee are available. There is also a Heineken cafe, a pint of 50 dirhams beer.

The airport is medium-sized, comfortable and convenient for passengers. The only negative is that there is no subway yet. It takes 25-30 minutes by taxi to EXPO 2020, about 70-80 AED if you use the app.

A huge airport built to receive guests at Expo 2020. However, now this airport is used to receive only a dozen flights a day. The airport is clean, excellent navigation. There are several duty-free shops in the departure area. If desired, you can even buy a Mercedes for 500 thousand dirhams. There is also a McDonald's in the departure area. There is a tax-free ticket office. Announcements during boarding are made, including in Russian. There is a bus service to the airport around the clock. There are no problems with taxis either. There is a vending machine for purchasing and replenishing transport cards at the exit to the city at the bus stop

It's a great airport. Surprisingly fast service. Attentive staff. Patient customs officers. Cleanliness and order. I am very pleased. You can always negotiate with taxi drivers. Exchangers are of course a little overpriced. I do not advise you to take a SIM card at the airport, and you do not need it. There is free Wi-Fi almost everywhere. Good luck to everyone.
