Hi, there is an airport hotel, but by all accounts its expensive. Perhaps you could pay to use a business lounge that would offer a recliner of sorts, otherwise the terminal has those style of seats but they are dificult to get. Good luck.

They've got comfy chairs which you can lie quite far back on (they're designed for having a nap on). I normally get three hours sleep on one of those and then have a pot of tea and/or a pint in the Irish pub they have there. I wouldn't bother getting a hotel if i were you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHYTALK Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 You could always hole up in trap 3, but would suggest you'd need a peg on your nose , and earplugs so as not to be disturbed by the irate bangs on the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodles Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I like the fact they have free wifi through out the airport aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
popmybubble Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Me too, but mine's 9 hours Are there any lounges in Terminal 3? They all seem to be in Terminal 1 and as I'm flying with Emirates I guess I'll be stuck in 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunn09 Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 I've flown several time with emirates into and out of Dubai but normally only pick flights with a short stopover but last time they had none so I ended up going with Klm, but my point is after i'd booked the flight the girl in Thomas cook(got same price as online and only had to pay deposit)said that any stops longer than 8 hours and they would have given me a hotel now not sure how true that is but worth an ask.
