First stop: Dubai International Airport; 19 March 2010. The worst airport experience to date. The dirtiest bathrooms, most unfriendly customer service, and nowhere to sleep... You can't take a nap on the chair next to you or lie in the floor... Torture! Spending 10 hours in a little plastic chair - after an 8 hour flight - is not for the faint hearted.
I don't know why people say Dubai is cheap because the airport is definitely not. Everything is so bloody expensive that I ended up scraping my coins together to buy a nice cup of coffee...(Starbucks!!!) seeing that it would be the only food I'll be consuming for the next 10 hours of my life. From now on there will be no more round trips through Dubai. Goodbye Emirates.
