Cheap Flights from Dubai to Dakar Starting at $338

Dubai is served primarily by Dubai International (DXB) and Dubai World Central–Al Maktoum (DWC). DXB is a major international hub popular with full-service carriers and many long-haul flights, while budget and charter operators often use DWC alongside some regionals. DXB sits about 10–15 km from downtown Dubai (roughly 15–25 minutes by taxi depending on traffic) with metro, buses and frequent taxis; fares typically range from modest metro charges to mid-range taxi fares. DWC is farther out, around 35–50 km from the city center (generally 40–60 minutes by road), served by buses, taxis and limited rail connections with higher transfer times and costs. Pros: DXB is extremely well connected and convenient for central arrivals; DWC can be quieter and sometimes cheaper but usually requires longer transfers and planning for onward transport.
