Downtown and DIFC put you fifteen minutes from DXB and in the middle of the business city: the Armani at the Burj Khalifa, the Address hotels around the fountain, Four Seasons DIFC. Jumeirah Beach and the Palm are the resort end, 25 to 35 minutes from either airport: Bulgari on its own island, One&Only The Palm, Atlantis The Royal, Jumeirah Al Naseem beside the Burj Al Arab. For a quieter week, the desert resorts at Al Maha and Bab Al Shams are under an hour from DWC.<\/p>\n
The city rewards a plan. The observation decks of the Burj Khalifa and the Museum of the Future are booked by time slot; a morning in the Al Fahidi quarter and on the Creek, crossing by abra, is the old Dubai that still exists; the Jumeirah coast, the Marina and Bluewaters are for the evenings. Desert drives, dune dinners and falconry run from October to April. Day trips reach the Louvre Abu Dhabi and the Sheikh Zayed Mosque in about ninety minutes by road, or the mountains at Hatta in the same time.<\/p>\n
Both airports have chauffeured cars at the terminal door, and most hotels send their own. Traffic on Sheikh Zayed Road is heavy from 7 to 10 in the morning and 4 to 8 in the evening, which is when DWC’s 45 minutes can beat DXB’s 15. Helicopter transfers between the airports and the Palm or Atlantis can be arranged on request.<\/p>\n
The weekend is Saturday and Sunday, with a short Friday. Alcohol is served in licensed hotels and restaurants; dress is relaxed at the beach, smart in the city and covered at the mosque. The dirham is pegged to the US dollar and cards are accepted everywhere. The time difference from central Europe is three hours in winter and two in summer, so an afternoon departure lands before midnight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
