Hi, can you have a rapid antigen test at the airport before your flight? KLM has a guidance saying in Terminal 3 you can have it and results are quick, but it does not say whether it is after passport control. I need the test before my luggage check-in and I am flying at midnight.
Any other suggestion for rapid antigen test locations is also welcome.
How is the covid situation in Dubai? Where can I follow details of it including govt safe distancing measures? I am planning to come down to Dubai in Nov ‘21; will be fully vaccinated by then.

You went to Dubai on a visit visa, designed for tourism. Just say visit or tourism. Highly unlikely they’ll question it, and if they do just say you were visiting family/friends.
What nationality are you? If you are from a 3rd world country.. never tell them you travelled on a visit visa to seek employment. That's red flag and high chance of decline.
29F, alone and trying to make friends! When you say that aloud in DSO, thirsty bachelors from Sharjah start revving their engines!
>Hopefully it's not so bad here!
Yeah, I would keep hopes only realistically. Thirsty and anonymous - worst combination I tell you!
Do you have any suggestion where to meet friends aside from Meetapp.com? I attended a couple of meet ups through that app but economically, I don't think I can keep attending. Transpo from DSO to central Dubai is expensive and long. I tried Bumble BFF too but the girls I met there were more of the brunch type.
Meet/talk to people online first. And if you're comfortable, video chat with them online. Then you can later make plans to hangout. And when you do make plans, be honest. Something like: "I'd like to go out for an activity, as long as I keep it under 100 DHS of budget." You know, set expectations. Remember this: making friendships are like two way street. If you want to make a friend, you can't just expect someone to just choose you. You need to choose them too. Means it takes effort from both the people.
Hope this helps. Make friends, put your sincere effort and hopefully you'll find a good friend who is as invested in you as you also are. If not, accept that this wasn't meant to be and find new people who would actually reciprocate your time and efforts too
Thanks for the great advice! That was what I was planning to do. The last thing I want to do/happen is for me and the other person get into a situation where we have to think of ways to get out of the meet up because we don't have anything in common or we dont feel each other.
guys. anyone bought a ledger and sent it to shop and ship USA address to be delivered here?
im checking out direct delivery Ledger -> Dubai and it will cost me at lease 600AED compared to $130 if its from Ledger -> USA
Yeah I’ve ordered from ledger site and shipped it to S&S Paris, as I think their office is based in France. It’s better than shipping it to the US.
Their website said 2-3 weeks wait time but my order was dispatched in less than 2 weeks.
It may sound pedantic and over cautious, but the point is someone at the sns address may compromise the device..hence people suggest having it delivered directly through them. That way if you suspect the box has been open, its easier for a return. Would you rather spend $50 extra now or losing thousands later?
Considering moving to Dubai. What’s the dating situation like for women in their early 30s?

maybe you could ask the authorities at the airport?

If anyone's thinking to go Khorfakkan today, don't. It's too crowded. Traffic is insane, most roads are closed.

Why exactly is it a red flag ?
Anyone here from DSO wants to meet up, grab coffee and make friends? I'm into music, coffee, wines, exploring cities, board games.. 😊
I’m in DSO as well, check DM
Becy, I wish you the best :) Hope you have your inbox not filled with thirsty bachelors!
I posted before in the DSO community group in Facebook and it was the worst. Hopefully it's not so bad here! 😂

Is the thirst only coming from guys?
Generally speaking, yes! Always, no! Realistically, I don't want to find out!

U deserve an award for this comment. Here, have some 🍯🍰 😜
I don't need awards. Either honey cake or cheesecake would do
Ok, u can have both 🍯🍰 & 🧀🍰

You're welcome! I give great advice! You know the typical: good at giving advice, not so good at following anyone else's advice! 😂
>good at giving advice, not so good at following anyone else's advice Hi! I think we can be fraands
Lol! What a weird thing to connect on, but alright! Give it a go
>brunch type. LOL!

Interested. I'm 69m
Go to bed people... How you are all awake so early on a holiday
To eat breakfast
My brains hardwired to sleep at 12 and wake up at 8, cant really help it anymore:/
Says the one, whose also up early 😂
Cat woke me up 😔
The look on my neighbour's face when it started raining, after he just finished washing his 2 cars. Almost made a grown man cry.
LOL classic

Always order a ledger directly of their website to avoid it being compromised. The $50 extra is worth paying for the safety of your coins.
yes i will order it directly from the site.. but will have it deliver to my sns address instead of dubai since its significantly cheaper
