Flights to Dubai
DXB · Dubai International Airport
Dubai International is the world's busiest airport for international traffic and the primary hub for Emirates, with Terminal 3 being one of the largest single airport buildings on earth. Emirates runs multiple daily flights from Johannesburg, Cape Town and Durban, making DXB the most connected long-haul city from South Africa. It is both a destination in its own right (shopping, beaches, Burj Khalifa) and the dominant Middle East connection point for onward flights to Asia, Europe and North America.
