You will have a security check, where your hang luggage is screened before you board your second flight in each direction.
Make sure you collect 2 boarding passes when checking in from your departure point, this will save a small amount of queuing waiting to get another boarding pass in DXB
So they check all the luggage for a second time in DXB, but do they also check my suitcase? I have never seen this before that customs check all the baggage a second time when you are on transit. Baggage is already screened by customs at the airport where I departed, so why a second check?
