The personal touches and acts of kindness at DXB are what truly set it apart. Here are just a few examples of the countless acts of exceptional service and kindness that showcase the human touch that makes DXB special:

Teddy bear magic

During check-in, a young person of determination travelling with his mother appeared agitated. Spotting the situation, DXB’s guest ambassadors swiftly stepped in to offer their support. They gifted the young traveller a teddy bear, bringing an immediate smile to his face. To further enhance their journey, the team arranged first-row seats on the aircraft and assigned an ambassador to accompany them all the way to the boarding gate. By the time they boarded, the guest was cheerful, and his mother expressed deep gratitude for the team’s kindness and attention, turning a potential stressful experience into a smooth and pleasant journey.

Bunny reunited

The team at DXB couriered a beloved lost bunny to a little boy in the UK after he forgot it at his boarding gate and only realised after the aircraft had left. It took employees at DXB some time to find the bunny but through teamwork and collaboration, it was safely located.

Swift recovery of a misplaced passport

A guest accidentally threw her passport into a trash bin in the smoking lounge after placing it in an empty shopping bag. Upon realising the mistake, she returned to search for it but couldn't find it, prompting her to seek assistance from the police. CCTV footage confirmed she was not carrying the bag when she exited the lounge. The team assisted the guest in contacting the embassy to issue her a replacement pass, enabling her to continue her travel.

Stranded no more

When a guest lost her passport at DXB Terminal 1, the team immediately stepped in to help. They contacted her embassy, which provided two options: wait for temporary documents requiring a visit to the consulate or book a direct flight back to her home country. Understanding the urgency, the team assisted the guest in booking a flight, ensuring a smooth and efficient resolution to a stressful situation.

Helping a guest reach her dream holiday

A guest feared she would miss her long-awaited trip to Madrid with her husband when , when she discovered her passport was lost just 20 minutes before departure. The DXB team, with support of the Dubai Police, sprang into action and located her passport just minutes before the boarding gate closed – saving a journey the couple had planned for a year.

Bridging the communication gap

When the team noticed that a guest was speech and hearing impaired, they quickly adapted by using a translator tool to communicate with him, ensuring he received the assistance he needed for a smooth experience.

Kindness landed

The team at DXB helped a guest who overstayed and missed his flight due to Alzheimer’s by liaising with his daughter over the phone, who assisted with translation, and successfully rebooked his flight.
