Just to renew the thread…..
One thing I learned not long ago when leaving Dubai, which I'm surprised has not been mentioned (or else I just missed it!!) is this:
You'll move out of your accommodation usually a few days before your last day and in that time, you'll take your passport to HR for visa cancellation which takes a few days. If you're staying at a hotel your last few nights in Dubai, you NEED your passport to check in!! So… make certain you have copies of that passport and UAE ID card which I had already turned in.
Also… one thing NOT mentioned in the checklist is that we are all entitled to either 2 or 3 nights accommodation the last 2 or 3 nights in Dubai… all on Emirates Airlines thank you very much!!! The hotels are either the Premier Inn or the Holiday Inn next to it. I think it's buried in the staff manual but it's there. No one will mention it to you from the company side of things, but if you need it, its there for you.
