IMPREXXION: DUBAI

by xuessium - last update: Feb 7, 2008

..."I came to Dubai to satisfy a nagging curiosity. A curiosity grown from the many fine murmurings and whisperings I had heard from friends. I wasn't sure what I should be expecting when I landed in Dubai at close to 2am. 5 hours later as the sun rose above the Arabian landscape, and then it hit me. I was home. Well, almost. Dubai is a glitzy modern city with all the trappings of modern comfort. Tall towers. Folks rushing about in snappy office attires. An all important waterway which the country links its origin to. A mix of races. It began to dawn on me the similarities it shares with my own home country. And that was when I realised it. There is no more nagging curiosity."...

 Hi! Greetings from Dubai :-) Nice page you have built here... and yes, I agree: the airport is an organisational nightmare, and I have been boycotting Emirates for years now: they're overpriced and overrated.

 Excellent as ever, mate! Don't know how you find the time to build these pages - my Iceland pages are limping along sloooowly! ;-) I'm heading back to Dubai in October...can't wait to see Palm Island for the first time and see what else has changed there!

 I have started flying Singapore Airlines because of the service provided by the EK crew. But then again, perhaps they just need more training. While they're at it, I will fly the friendlier airline ;-)
