Free WiFi is for 1/2 an hour use only after that you need to pay. Time will start after the connection so disconnecting say in 5 min and reconnecting later won't work. ( Boingo Hotspot/ DXB Free WiFi)
For check in online, use counter No 2 to drop your luggage by yourself , which would be faster than 1,3,4. Of course, the suggestion is only for economy class.
maxspot is the free wifi log in name. after logging in to maxspot go to browser open homepage it will direct you to airport transport page. Once you see that page you can open any apps or surf the net
24 hours check-in for Emiratesflight, free Wifi, showers and lotsa of prayer rooms. Still prefer shopping in the souqs than here. All in all, not a bad place to be when transitting.
Free wifi is one of rare things around here, even most hotels charge you for that. Duty freestaff is annoying, always breathing behind your neck (I am checking a perfume not your breath, ffs!).
If you are flying with Emirates economy class, I recommend you to check in online in advance if it is possible. Otherwise, you have to stand in a looooong queue at the check in counter.
If you are hungry and your flight gate is shown, I recommend to get your boarding pass and find something to eat after passport check gate. You have much more choices there.
A huge airport to walk around. Wifi used to be bad (almost no wifi) but currently you can use the wifi (30 mins free) by signing up once and you can use the same ID and pw every time you stop by.
The airport is nice. Smaller than Abu Dhabi but has nice shops and an open long hall type of seating area by departure location. The wifi is limited though which is a minus.
Huge airport. Make sure you check which gate you're leaving from in good time as you may need to change terminals. Connecting trains will take you between but take time.
None of the way plug point at gate B musolla are working. Finally found one at next to duty free shop. Has to stand while charging. Really considering to de-list this airport as one of my favorite.
If you are traveling on Emiratesairline make online checking and you will revive the seat number gate number barcode on mobile and email, that's all...
