Also it depends how you define "connected". If your yardstick is number of international airlines that service a hub, LHR is hard to beat. But DXB may be better connected in the sense of having more direct flights to more places in the world. For instance, DXB is the only hub that I know of that has non-stop service to all continents (except Antartica of course).
