Emirates has issued a travel advisory for customers departing from Dubai ahead of the Eid Al Fitr holiday, anticipating busy travel weekends and potential traffic congestion around Terminal 3 entrances.

The airline advises passengers to arrive at the airport up to three hours before their flight and to be mindful of boarding times to ensure timely arrival at departure gates.

Emirates offers a variety of check-in options, including online check-in via emirates.com or the Emirates App, available 48 hours prior to departure. Additionally, passengers can utilize the Emirates City Check-in and Travel Store in ICD Brookfield Place from 24 hours up to four hours before departure, with an exception for U.S.-bound travelers. Other options include home check- in services from residences or hotels, convenient check-in kiosks and baggage drop facilities in Terminal 3, and mobile check-in ports throughout the terminal. Travelers from northern Emirates can also avail themselves of check- in services at Ajman Central Bus Terminal within the same timeframe.
