ADC just got in this evening after changing in Dubai of a Far East route and would echo what has been posted previously but with one bit of trepidation as air traffic issues at Dubai can cause delays making connection some times quite tight. There are two flights a day from Nairobi 16.40 & 22.50 which are you on ?. I have been in the stack on the latter flight at Dubai for 20+ min and then been parked nearly on the beach, which means a long bus ride which eats into tight connections. I have always got there, but I am on the Man flights and have more time usualy. You should get some more info of other "DXB soft shoe shufflers" who are SE based or even EK crew who will be able to give you more info.
