Here is a fact: Everybody around Dubai loves travelling and flying. That is why it's obvious that the Dubai airport is catered towards the convenience of every traveler. There's a wide selection of brands for shopping at Dubai Duty Free and chairs are a dime a dozen. There are, however, things that you can get around the airport without paying a single penny. What are these? Here are just five examples.

Wi-Fi

Let us rephrase that - ultra fast Wi-Fi. Dubai airport's Wi-Fi reception is so good that you can give a Skype call to you friends or family. If you want something entertaining during your layover, it is powerful enough to stream videos and music.

Relaxation

There are several Zen gardens in Dubai International where weary travellers can sit down amongst lush greenery and soothing water displays. This is the part of the airport that you must go to when you're feeling the stress coming in.

Meal vouchers

According to Skyscanner, if you're flying with Emirates and a have a layover of four hours or more, you can collect free meal vouchers. You can use these vouchers in select restaurants across the airport. They don't consider Emirates one of the best airlines in the world without any reason.

Sleep

We all know pushing luggage trolleys can be tiresome. That is why, for whenever you need to catch a nap, there are recliner seats around the airport. Don't forget to turn on your alarm so that you don't miss your flight.

Makeover

Sorry guys, this is for the ladies in the room. Want to sport that "airport fashion" look? Boutiques around Dubai Duty Free offer simple makeup samplers that will bring out the glam in you. Now you're ready for those numerous photos you'll share on social media before your flight.
