I am wondering, my luggage at DXB how long does it remain on the carosel and what happens to it after that? I hope to on landing be around 30-45 mins in Duty Free and then straight to egates and collect luggage. I have a feeling it may be moved so trying to work out what actually happens? The reason I ask is apart from the obvious, I also have an option to switch to an evening flight into DXB 9pm and I am tempted to switch to that and on either flight I think I want to land and sleep first as I will be awake the previous 6 hours so tired. Suggestions are welcome
Are there any Duty Free shops on the 'wrong' side of transfer security? Certainly to get to the 'duty free zoo' you need to go through security first and it has been reported that you then can go 'the wrong way' through that security setup once you have done your shopping (or had your free meal in the lounge....
).
Never done anything like this myself, I usually just transfer in DXB and on the one occasion I left the airport I did not really look for duty free shopping.
