What terminal does DL8 use at Dubai?
I'm traveling there later next month, and heard that from May 1 flights arriving at DXB into some terminals will be redirected to the new airport in Jebel Ali.
Anyone know if this will affect me?

Terminal 1.
Does not look like DL will be effected (at least I hope not):

FYI if you have not been there before, when arriving, many times the regular line takes less time than the "fast track" line. Pretty easy to determine - if there is only 1 person working and you are not in the first 10 people, the regular line will be usually be faster.

Thanks! Although looking at the link provided, maybe it doesn't apply to passenger flights?
To safeguard service levels and optimise capacity while the work is taking place, scheduled passenger flights at Dubai International will be reduced and all freighter, charter and general aviation flights will be diverted to Al Maktoum International at Dubai World Central (DWC). In all there will be a 26 per cent reduction in the number of aircraft movements at DXB during the maintenance period.
