In November I’m flying with EK to Sydney from LGW - my connection is 5hr 20 mins. I was having a brain wave that I could quickly hop on the metro, into the city to quickly view the Burj Khalifa and head straight back and on to my flight.

Would you recommend that I would have enough time to do it?

Many Thanks,

What time do you arrive? Do you have egate at Dubai airport?

It takes 15 mins in a cab so it's easily do able it just depends on what time etc. Are you in first or business? Again would make immigration shorter if you have egate of biz of first and can come through the business side immigration when you head back to the airport.
