Is there any bananas at Dubai airport? For my son

My son is special and needs fresh(ish) bananas when he travels for long periods of time, does anyone know where I could get some bananas at Dubai airport during our long transit?

You can also try the fruit stand by gate B14, it's basically right next to the B13 spot and sometimes has better stock. The Spinneys in terminal 1, near arrivals, sells whole bananas if you're willing to go through security again, but that's more hassle during a transit. For a quick fix, the Costa near gate A1 used to sell fruit boxes with banana pieces, though I'm not sure if they still do.

tbh the best move is to hit up one of the 24hr minimarts in terminal 3 near gate c1, they always have those little fruit packs with pre-sliced banana and apple. not exactly whole fruit but way less running around

yeah they definitely have bananas at dubai airport, but you gotta know where to look. the best bet is probably the fresh fruit shop near gate b13 in terminal 3, they usually have whole bananas and sometimes apple slices too. if that's closed or too far, most of the big convenience stores like the one near the dubai duty free walkway sell pre-packed fruit cups that sometimes have banana slices mixed in, but for whole fresh ones stick to that little shop. honest opinion though, they're not always perfectly ripe, sometimes a bit green, but they're definitely fresh

Dubai/Sharjah Road Scam?

I helped a guy stranded on the ring road, gave him a ride to Ras Al Khaima after he claimed to have lost his wallet. Turns out he was fine, just jumped out and vanished. Did I get played?

damn u basically did a free taxi run to rak. thing is they usually target cars with a single guy driving & look for dubai plates so u look like u got somewhere to be. best move is roll ur window down like two inches, say u already called the cops for them & keep moving, dont even unlock the door

yeah that's a known one on e311 & the sharjah ring road, usually they wave you down near the adnoc or before the rta cameras claiming wallet got lifted. classic play is they ask for a lift to the next emirate then bail once you slow down, sometimes a second guy on a bike is tracking you. next time just call 999 or drop them at the nearest police point, don't let anyone in your car off the highway ngl

The RAK route is the tell. No one genuinely stranded on the ring road needs to get all the way to Ras Al Khaimah, that's a 90 minute drive. These guys work in pairs and the second car picks them up after they hop out, usually somewhere past the Al Sajaa junction or near the ADNOC on E311. If it happens again, tell them you'll drive them to the nearest police station and watch how fast the story changes.
