Will be flying from BHX through DXB to SYD in November - returning a few weeks later
How soon before a flight does Emirates announce which gate the next flight will be departing from?
I dont want to miss a connection !!

Sometimes during your flight (before landing in Dubai) on the flight channel they would post the flight numbers, along with their destinations, times, and gate numbers. Just search on the flight information channel and see your gate number for your connecting flight.
Alternatively, you could always ask the airport staff (there is like a reception area) which are not so difficult to spot, and they would tell you which gate to go to for your connecting flight.
Flight monitors are also installed in various locations around the airport, so knowing your gate number for your connecting flight should not be difficult. Oh and happy flying with Emirates

Thank you both for your replies
I have a 3 hour connection to Sydney and 2hr 45min connection on the return
I had no idea that I could view flight info on the ICE system - Thats a clever trick !!
This will be my very first long haul flight - First of many I hope !!

Here's a tip, sometimes I have transit time as short as 1.5 hours, so if the security line is too long and/or someone is taking too long to be checked, just tell security or a member of airport staff that you have short transit time (have your boarding pass with you as proof just in case,) and they may speed you through security (that's what I do when I have extremely limited transit time.)
3 hours connection should be nothing to worry about assuming you know your way

security line even though I`m in transit ?!
I figured I would get off the first plane EK38 and wait in Terminal 3 for the next plane EK412?? No?...
Apologies first time at DXB !!

Yes there is a transit security check. There's usually always transit security when connecting to and from international flights in most airport around the world.Originally Posted by iain30stafford

Be warned : you may have to queue a little bit. There used to be a fast lane for premium passengers, but don't count on it. Never saw it working properly.
You'll have to take out electronic devices, but they seem to be more relaxed on liquids.

They have never asked me to take out my laptop or iPad from my carry on. Originally Posted by ioto1902
