Hi
Just wondering

1) Is it easy to use Credit cards in Dubai just liek you would i nthe UK? Are they as commonly taken? What about Maestro debit cards - are there a lot of cash machines over there?

2) I am going to Dubai as a stop over, I will have one rucksack and oen large suitcase, I wont need anything from the suitcase whilst in Dubai so it woudl be ideal to store it somewhere (i.e the airport) - does anyone know if they have luggage storage facilities for us non first class flyers? And how expensive it is?

1) Maestro is not commonly taken for card transactions and in the one place that did, I had my card cloned....watch out for cloning its very prevenlant with Maestro cards. There are lots of card machines over in Dubai and they are a bit safer

2) dunno- there is usually a left luggage section in aiports that charges per item- I am sure Dubai has one
