24-hour layover in Dubai for non-Gulf crew, what to do that isn't a mall

    THY crew, occasional Dubai layover, tired of malls. What do Gulf-based crew actually do with a day off in Dubai?

    Kite Beach early morning before it's hot, breakfast at one of the cafés on the boardwalk, then the old town, Al Fahidi and the creek abra for a few dirhams, spice souk. Evening: the Al Seef waterfront. Skip the Burj unless you have a real reason. If it's summer, reverse it: indoor in the day, creek at sunset.

    And the Friday brunch is a trap for a layover, expensive and you fly wrecked. Save it for a day off at home.
