When flying via DXB and based on the typical flight timings. I generally transit DXB between midnight - 4am one direction and 7-9pm the other. The the middle of the night stop the lounge really makes it bearable.

Also if your routes tend to be routinely very full you might have better chances of op-ups. I've had three so far this year on DXB - HYD/HYD - DXB
