Flying Emirates J, intercontinental.

Also how does this work with chauffeaur drive and luggage?

-Advice on getting around Dubai?. Not to keen on renting a car. Or should I?
There are no arrival lounges at DXB. The airport is close to the city and it wouldn't take over 30 minutes to get to a hotel all the way across town.

Chauffeur drive can be booked in advance online. When you arrive, after customs when you enter the public area, there is an area on the right where you get a slip for your chauffeur car.

Taxis are pretty cheap in Dubai. The other option is the metro, but it is only convenient to get from one mall to another.
