I think last night was the dry night and it will continue until around 6pm or 7pm tonight after which time, everything will be back to normal.

If he is passing through & he won't actually leave the airport - so he should be able to have one, airports as far as I know aren't included in the same rules, as it something like in international airspace! Sorry--I meant he is passing through as in he is in town for one night. I didn't think there were any bars in arrivals...just coffee, shopping, and currency services, etc.

Does anyone know if the bars in DXB are serving after 6pm today? Is it dry there too? A friend of mine is passing through and planned on having a drink when he landed. But actually, don't think there are any bars in arrivals, anyway...

I had an official note from The Ivy and Frankies, it's dry from 6pm tonight until 7pm tomorrow night, so no, they won't be able to drink tonight. A lot of places have moved their Friday brunches until Friday evening or Saturday too. HTH.

Well, this is something new for me. Sorry for the crazy question, but what does dry Friday mean? I guess I should do my job and Google. :) But anyways, my husband's 30th birthday is on 2nd, so that means no dinner with a glass of wine for us? We will not be able to get alcohol anywhere? Not that I was planning to get us drunk, but just to have a lovely dinner with a drink or two. Yeah basically you wouldn't be served any alcohol anywhere, apart from at home (in private) Just save up to Friday night or Saturday, especially as Sunday is off :) From all the days in one year exactly on his birthday. Lucky guy! :D Will have to think about Friday night, yes. Thanks Polly!

Whichever day it is called,Thursday or Friday, does that mean that there won't be any Friday Brunches? A friend was planning on taking his wife to a brunch for her birthday and I'm sure (being a man) he won't check on this, although it has been mentioned to him!
