Emirates is preparing for a busy travel period from April 18 to April 21, as the airline anticipates more than 300,000 travelers to commence their journeys from Terminal 3 at Dubai International Airport. Given the expected congestion, Emirates advises passengers to arrive early and have all necessary travel documents ready to avoid delays.
Various check-in options are available, including online check-in through the Emirates website or app 48 hours before departure, providing digital boarding passes to travelers. For those departing from Terminal 3, check-in counters will open 24 hours before flight departure, with a reduced window of 12 hours for US-bound flights. Emirates encourages travelers to drop off their baggage the night before or check in early to expedite their passage through Immigration or utilize the biometric gates for a quick clearance.
Emirates offers additional check-in facilities at the City Check-In & Travel Store at ICD Brookfield Place in DIFC and Ajman Central Bus Terminal, both allowing check-ins from 24 to 4 hours before departure, except for US-bound flights.
