We are flying AD-London-Miami with our 2 year old son. I would like to take milk cartons as I prefer milk than juices or sodas for my son, even for me ;). I dont think I will have trouble with milk leaving from here, but what about in London? would security let me take the milk to the plane, also coming back from USA. Anyone knows? We are flying BA, would they have milk boxes to give my son if I ask?, so I dont have to carry. edited by imolinar on 14/05/2014 You are able to take as much formula milk on board the aeroplane as is reasonable for the flight (and I would take extra in case of delays). Other liquids have a 100ml restriction, but this doesn't apply to baby milk. Yes you can take bottles, but you may have to try them in front of security staff. This would be during the security checks (just after the scanners). The liquids are picked up by the scanners and you may need to taste a little. If you take unopened cartons of formula, be aware that you may have to open them too - leaving you with the obvious problems of spillage and mess. As another answerer suggested, you can buy ready made milk if there is a Boots in the airport. As these shops are beyond the security check area, you won't have to open them. Of course it would be best to check the opening hours of those shops ahead of time - you should find this information on the airport website.

Hi everyone what baby items would you recommend I pick up in the UK? I haven't done much research into prices in Dubai yet but I'm assuming that things are more expensive here, or that there are some things you can't get. Any money saving tips? I'll also be looking for second hand things especially for the big items like a pram. TIA Dubai is more expensive than the UK and with the constant sales I would say buy at home. Mamas and Pappas stuff is 30% more expensive here, although it depends on what you need to buy.

From the posts on here the turnaround time is around 7-8 weeks I don't think the office is in a mess. I imagine they are processing 1000's of applications and as we cannot present ourselves in person as we would in the UK then it takes a little longer Plan to do mine well advance of it expiring due to the time frame Good Luck edited by sarahlou123 on 14/05/2014 <em>edited by sarahlou123 on 14/05/2014</em>

I posted this article not for those that know all these but for those having questions and inquiries! With statements from Mr. Marwan bin Ghalita, no less! And yes, it is something new, the possibility of an online complaint! Maybe I missed something and this post is not helpful for those with LL and rent increases problems! You forgot to thumb me down :) :) Thanks for the info. Also it may put a stop to LL giving eviction notices so they can re-rent

My colleague just checked on paperwork he has and it does state two bedrooms are required to sponsor a wife - I am based in Tecom so whether that has anything to do with it I have no idea. If they have changed something recently I have not read about it I did see in the news that a family is only allowed to share a one bed if the apartment size is over 600sq ft so doesn't that contradict what the paperwork says Perhaps ask him to speak with immigration. I know several couples who only have a one bed and not all of their Wives are on a resident visa. I cannot imagine that Tecom has different rules?

Can anyone clarify if there is any bending of the rules for the above? I have a colleague who is married and wishes to sponsor his wife but only lives in a one bedroomed apartment. We have been advised that he needs to have a 2 bedroom minimum to be able to sponsor her!! Has anyone else come across this as it sounds ridiculous, why would they need or want a 2 bedroom place? Nope this isn't the case at all Most of my Female colleagues are sponsored by DH and only live in one beds Who has advised this?

Wow! I have never heard of DIY teeth whitening haha! I am going to try this, with either coconut oil or lemon juice :) Do you get sensitivity though? You can buy moulds and the whitener online. The shop bought ones don't have a high level of peroxide in for legal reasons My friend gets hers from www.dentist.net and wears the moulds around the house and at night She has beautifully white teeth

While we're at it, BT, can you tell me how to stop my husband from receiving my text messages on his IPAD? Could be bad, you know :) Do you both share an iTunes account/Apple ID? You probably have iMessage turned on, and if you share and Apple ID, then you share an iMessage address. Hence, you are getting each others messafes. To fix this, one of you needs to make a new iCloud account for your iMessages. You can do that from the Settings app on your iPhone. Do you both share an iTunes account/Apple ID?

However I take your point about the heat and the interior plastic! I viewed one last weekend and I must say the inside was perfect. I will keep a look out for this though - its a good point :) I have a black interior and black leather seats! Not practical for the Summer but they keep my bum warm in the Winter :-) Do you have a beetle Sarahlou or just a car of similar size?? :) I know my husband did advise Id need to keep a towel in the car to sit on so that I could sit on the leather ha! I have a golf and I love her even though she is getting old now :-)

Hi ladies, I still haven't been to a hairdressers here as I've managed to get it cut on my trips back home. However, there is no way it can wait until the summer but I am too scared to get it cut after hearing so many horror stories about bodged haircuts/colours! Please can anyone recommend somewhere reliable and not stupidly expensive please? I just want a cut and am not used to paying more than 30GBP for a wet cut at home (I know I'll never find anywhere cheap here though!!) I'd quite like to find somewhere near Arabian Ranches too if possible. I was given a contact for a place called Essa in JLT but when I looked it appeared this is just a beauty salon not a hairdressers. Argh! Thanks in anticipation! Try Donna at Roots Barsha They have a website and I think are relatively cost effective for a cut She is from the UK and has been in Dubai for 12 years

Hi Kaydee, it sounds like you had a bit of bad experience with your Beetle! As you say, its not the mechanical side it was issues that could happen to any car. Sorry about your experience with it! I know people with them who have them and they say they dont have any issues with it that may not occur with any other second hand car. However I take your point about the heat and the interior plastic! I viewed one last weekend and I must say the inside was perfect.

not sure this is the type of car i would be looking at to be driving in Dubai, I did think the same thing! Why? I know plenty of people who drive soft tops and have never had issues German cars are usually solid ( Body that is) cos its little and most cars in Dubai would drive over it! Minis are smaller and I see loads of them on the road here... Mine is also the same size and never had any problems here either

This thread has made me really conscious of all these strange little quirks we have! Classic one this morning - a lady stopped me in Mall of the Emirates to compliment me on my bag - my response?

Good morning GeordieBird201 I hope you are well.I used the company recently and they did a very good cleaning job. They have normal cleaning for 25 dir per hour minimum 2 hours and they use very good cleaning products. If you want a deep cleaning done it depends how many bedrooms you have. Please have a look on the Web at www.alharmodicleaning.com or email a guy called Bernard at [email protected] and then he can call you to have a chat about your cleaning needs. Feel free to get in touch with him All the best Desertgirly Free advertising lol

Morning ladies, Looking for some visa advice, until recently I worked for emirates but I resigned and now I'm back on a visitors visa, planning to stay here for the next few years with bf and currently looking for a new job, The stamp on my passport says it's only valid for 30 days but I ve heard u can stay up to 90 if u pay, do any of u know if that's right? How u go about it? Or have any other information that might be helpful? Many thanks in advance 30 days plus 10 days grace one payment at immigration but costs like 600dhs odd or you just do the visa run across the border each month. My understanding is that you get the 10 days grace period when you first enter the country on a visit visa. When you have had an employment visa and it has been cancelled the grace period is only 30 days. I don't think you get the 10 day extension

Thank you :) If you ever do have enough cash to do one, I saw some of Dr Khans work in this area and the results were amazing.

What is an unlimited contract, is that one that gets renewed automatically every year? Most people have an unlimited contract, mine lasts for 3 years Limited last for 2 years and if you leave within 2 years you have to pay back 45 days pay and you also get a 6 month ban which cannot be overturned. It also works in reverse. If the employer lets you go within 2 years they have to compensate you

Hi I started a new job back in March this year but have found I really don't like it, even beginning to hate it :/ So I am looking at leaving just before my probation period is up which will be end of September. I'm on my husbands visa so I know there can be no costs for that but would I have to pay back for my labour card? I haven't had any specific training or anything like that which would have cost my employer money. I know I may be facing a 6 month ban but as DH and I are trying for a baby, this wont matter much as I wouldn't be working when baby is here (wages I get are no where near enough to cover daycare for baby so don't see the point paying more than I earn to go to a job I don't like when DH job brings in enough money on his own) Would really appreciate any advice someone can offer! Tried looking through the Labour Law and I'm just getting myself more and more confused! Are you on a limited or unlimited contract? Is it written anywhere on your contract that says you have to pay back fees if you leave. Which area do you work in My understanding is that you wont get a ban on an unlimited contract

Agree that it's the landlord's responsibility to prepare a new contract. A related question: whose responsibility is it to register the new contract with EJari? Or is it only the first one that has to be registered? Our first contract was registered by the agent but I don't suppose they are going to do it every year! It is the LL responsibility however you can also get it done if you want too

In general, landlords are responsible for presenting you with a new contract to sign. Having said that, if you are happy with the terms and want to stay, I would suggest you just get it done and have it signed asap. The generic tenancy contracts can be found in bookstores or stationary stores for a dirham a piece, but be sure it is the two sided ones. I just did my own as I would not want to go through the landlord's agency and pay 1000dhs for a piece of paper. 1000AED wow, my friend just went through the same. agency tried to charge him AED1500 however he spoke to someone really high up at the RC who told him the actual amount is AED160 therefore he managed to pay the lower price. They don't half try it on!

dear all- i must have been lucky as on the countless trips I have taken on EK, I can count on my hands the ones I was not completely happy with. And I just needed to use other airlines 2-3 times to know that Emirates is still by far the best i've experienced. Prices are not cheap, I get that, but still cheaper sometimes than Air France for example, that is much much worse in terms of service with or without children (tried and tested). I also try and book early which makes a huge difference in price (especially with the runway works going on and some flights being canceled).Again, maybe it's just me, but still wanted to share as we are all quick to complain about what we don't like, and I never took the time to actually mention that I am particulary happy with their services. I am too. I am not able to get many direct flights home at the time of day I like with other airlines In 8 years I can say I am satisfied with them

OP as far as I am aware it is the company's duty to repatriate. That is what happened when my husband was killed in a road accident. Drivers here are absolutely awful. They cannot stay in the same lane, they do not indicate, they speed, they are PERMANENTLY on their phones, they cut in, they tailgate, the children are not strapped in, they do not know what "Merging" is, they cannot go round a roundabout in the correct lane, they push in in lines of traffic....and where are the police when all this is happening? They seriously need to enforce stronger laws in this country, whether that is a stricter driving test. a minimum income for car owning, larger fines that they actually enforce. I get so so cross and stressed out because of the other idiots on the road who do not care about anyone else's lives or their own. Yet you can be put in jail or fined for two opposite sexes holding hands or showing affection! It is just ridiculous and makes me so cross. ggggrrrr I am so sorry to hear about your Husband and the scary thing is because of other peoples ignorance, attitude to driving and lack of education it could happen to anyone of us

Frankly I find it remarkable they don't do more to give priority to passengers with infants for bassinet seats, and any passenger that can move but refuses to do so should look at the best interests of all the passengers on board. What is the most irritating thing on a plane (except for a blocked toilet)? A screaming baby. In many instances a baby in a bassinet is likely to be more comfortable and to sleep than a baby on someone's lap. So really, booking into a bassinet seat and refusing to move is detrimental not only to the family you are depriving of that seat but potentially for all passengers on the plane yourself included. I will most likely be flying to Dubai with Emirates in September with a month old baby, so it will be interesting to see how we get on with their policy (or lack there of) then. I don't have an issue giving my seat up for a child who fits in a bassinet however I have lost count of the parents with much bigger children who want me to move and have been quite rude about it :-)

Hi everyone, Thank you all for your replies and kindness in advice. Saralou- thank you so much- The greens i heard from someone that it doesn't have a close metro station depending on where you live in the greens - if you live in certain blocks its too far to walk to a metro or to shops??! Is that true because from what you're saying its not? :) Is access to SZR very busy at peak times going to AD or its ok? As my husband will be working there - driving every day. Audrey- we're receiving 225K living allowance so we will be looking for a 3 bed apartment. My husband is try fussy about the quality of apartments. Someone has got it into his head that the finishing of the apartments in THE GREENS isn't great neither are the pool facilities and the gyms there. In comparison to the marina. Is this true? Can anyone shed some light on the truth from what we have heard from people. For everybody else thank you for the advice about walking in the heat. I guess I haven't given that much thought as I'm always thinking that I'll be out with baby taking walks in the park rather than staying indoors. Of course I want to live close to amenities. I live in one of the new buildings and the finishes are beautiful. We tend to have the same security guards who are very friendly and the guys are constantly cleaning the common areas. Our pool is drained and tiles repaired every year. We have a lovely pool surrounded by trees and grass with comfy sun loungers, a small park for the children and a covered children's pool. I lived in the Marina for 2 years and did not like it there. It was too noisy and built up for me, coming from the country I wanted a low level tree lined street area if that makes sense. GB As CP said there is a shuttle bus every 15 minutes from various buildings ( I forgot about that as I drive) It isn't too bad getting out to the major roads in the morning although coming back at peak hours it can be jammed. I would say that is the same for all areas in Dubai

The other thing I find so dangerous is the places vehicles stop, Particularly taxis stopping on SZR to drop passengers on the road so they can hop over the barrier to the Metro. No indication! they just stop dead in the road!

My mum , god bless her , would toast one side and grill cheese on the bread side..... My hub thinks that's strange!! To be fair it was think soft fluffy bread...yum yum That's how you make cheese on toast, not strange at all otherwise if you toasted both sides and then added the cheese one side would be burnt under the cheese.
