Cheap flights from Belfast to Dubai from £158

When booking a flight from Belfast to Dubai, you can find several relatively short flights between the two cities. Unfortunately, there are currently no direct flights. British Airways complete the journey in approximately ten hours and 30 minutes with a stopover at Heathrow Airport in London. Aer Lingus also completes the flight in around ten hours and 30 minutes with a stop in London. You can also catch collaboration flights between Emirates and Aer Lingus that average about 11 hours with one stop in London.

When leaving for your Belfast to Dubai flight, you will depart from Belfast International Airport. You can reach the airport easily by catching the Airport Express 300 bus from several main stations around the city. By train, you can catch the N1 train from several Belfast stations to Sydenham station. There you disembark to complete the rest of the trip to the airport on foot or by shuttle. Local taxis and Ubers are also available to take you to the airport. Upon arrival in Dubai, you will land at Dubai International Airport, and you'll have many public transportation options to get to the city. You can catch the metro train at Terminals 1 and 3. The high-speed trains depart every ten minutes. Airport buses 401 and 402 go to the city of Dubai from outside Terminals 1 and 2. Taxis are situated outside all Arrivals terminals, and there are two types of taxis to look out for. Cream-rimmed taxis are for regular travellers, and pink-rimmed taxis are for women or women travelling alone with children.

Whether booking yourself a one-way ticket or a return flight from Belfast to Dubai, you will arrive at one of the world's most prestigious airports with excellent access to public transport options for further travel beyond the city of Dubai. Being able to visit the surrounding areas by car hire, train or bus is a great reason for you to explore cities such as Ajman and enjoy the more traditional and cultural side of the United Arab Emirates. See heritage sites such as the Ajman Museum, which was built in an 18th-century fort. The archaeological ruins are also a great attraction in the old city of Ajman. Another city that is accessible from Dubai International Airport is Sharjah. Again, much more traditional than its modern sister Dubai, it is a popular tourist destination due to the region's ancient heritage. Visiting the Jebel Ali port is great fun. Witness the submerged wrecks through the clear water and enjoy rich marine life as well as great water-based activities. It is also a cosmopolitan and commercial business hub for the region.
