  • Arabic

Only public transport and authorised vehicles will be allowed into the arrivals forecourt at Dubai International Airport's Terminal 1.

The decision, which came into effect on Thursday, is intended to reduce congestion in the pickup area of the airport.

Motorists travelling to Terminal 1 will be able to collect arriving passengers by using one of either two car parks or the valet service.

Terminal 1 is served by all international airlines, including British Airways, Air India, Air China and Singapore Airlines.

Terminal 2 receives passengers flying on flydubai and other regional and international airlines, whereas Terminal 3 is exclusively for Emirates services and some flydubai flights.

Car park A at Terminal 1 is a two to three-minute walk and intended for shorter stays, with the cost of five minutes' parking at Dh5, increasing to Dh125 for the whole day.

Car park B is a seven to nine-minute walk to the terminal and suitable for those who intend to park for longer periods. An hour costs Dh25 while a full day is Dh85.

The full list of charges can be found on the Dubai Airports website.

Tips to stay safe during hot weather
  • Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of fluids, especially water. Avoid alcohol and caffeine, which can increase dehydration.
  • Seek cool environments: Use air conditioning, fans, or visit community spaces with climate control.
  • Limit outdoor activities: Avoid strenuous activity during peak heat. If outside, seek shade and wear a wide-brimmed hat.
  • Dress appropriately: Wear lightweight, loose and light-coloured clothing to facilitate heat loss.
  • Check on vulnerable people: Regularly check in on elderly neighbours, young children and those with health conditions.
  • Home adaptations: Use blinds or curtains to block sunlight, avoid using ovens or stoves, and ventilate living spaces during cooler hours.
  • Recognise heat illness: Learn the signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke (dizziness, confusion, rapid pulse, nausea), and seek medical attention if symptoms occur.
