FLIGHT TIME TO DUBAI
Air links connect Brussels to Dubai, covering a distance of 5,174 kilometers with an average flight time of 6 hours and 15 minutes. The majority of aircraft departing from Belgium, but also from the Netherlands and Germany, land at Dubai International Airport (DXB). The newer Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC), also known as Dubai World Central, is served by other airlines, although these do not operate flights from Belgium, the Netherlands or Germany.
Note that the return to Brussels always takes longer than the outward journey, as the aircraft is affected by a headwind, so the average speed of the aircraft is inevitably lower than on the outward journey.
The departure and arrival times for Dubai mentioned on your ticket, in your booking confirmation or displayed at airports are estimates only. These estimates are based on average flight times, and the actual duration of your flight may vary according to various factors. To find out the exact duration of your flight to Dubai, we recommend you follow the flight in real time.
Several factors influence the exact duration of a flight to Dubai: the departure airport, the presence of a stopover and the type of aircraft used are determining factors. In addition, arriving air traffic can play a role: runway congestion can sometimes force a plane to wait before landing.
Flight to Dubai with Emirates
The direct flight from Brussels to Dubai with Emirates takes around 6 hours and 40 minutes. The return journey takes a little longer, due to the headwind, and the aircraft’s speed is therefore lower.
