Unable to find information about the schedule of direct flights from
Dubai is served by two main airports with distinct roles. Dubai International (DXB) is the primary international hub and focuses on long-haul and premium carriers—Emirates is the dominant operator alongside many global airlines—so fares can range from competitive to premium depending on route and season. Located about 10–15 km from the city centre, DXB is linked by metro (Red Line, roughly 15–25 minutes to central areas), taxis (20–40 minutes) and shuttle services; expect transit fares from low to moderate levels. Its strengths are extensive international connections and full-service facilities; downsides can include busy terminals and occasional longer queues. Al Maktoum International (DWC), positioned further south in Dubai South, functions more as a growing secondary hub and is often used by low-cost and cargo carriers; travel times to Downtown Dubai are typically 35–60 minutes by road depending on traffic, with taxi or private transfer the main options and somewhat higher fares due to distance. DWC can provide cheaper flight options at quieter terminals, though it may be less convenient for quick city access or frequent connections.
Erbil International Airport (EBL) serves as Iraq’s primary northern gateway and typically functions as a regional/international hub rather than a low-cost outpost. It usually hosts a mix of full-service carriers and regional airlines connecting the Kurdistan Region to destinations across the Middle East and some seasonal international routes; fares can be competitive but may vary with demand and season. The airport lies about 12–13 km northeast of Erbil city center, with taxis taking roughly 15–25 minutes and shared minibuses or hotel shuttles often available; expect taxi fares to be modest though subject to local rates. Pros: relatively modern facilities and straightforward customs for regional travel. Cons: services and frequency can be more limited than larger global hubs, and ground-transport options may be less frequent late at night.
