Most journeys from South Korea to Dubai connect at Singapore Changi Airport, which offers a free transit tour on eligible layovers if you wish to experience the city briefly. For shorter connections, you can stay airside and enjoy indoor gardens, walking trails, play areas, rest zones, and a wide choice of dining and shopping. Airport hotels and nap facilities are also available if you prefer to rest between flights. Your time at the airport is more than just a wait — it is an integral part of your journey.

Seoul and Busan both follow Korea Standard Time (UTC+9). Dubai follows Gulf Standard Time (UTC+4) and does not observe daylight saving time. This means Dubai is 5 hours behind both Seoul and Busan throughout the year.
