Definitely go for the 10 AM session if you can. The slopes are less crowded and you get better time on the snow before it gets too busy.

If you want to save some cash, consider bringing your own gloves and hats. I realized they charge a fortune for them inside the park, and it was a bummer.

Consider renting your gear there instead of bringing your own. I thought I'd save money, but the rental prices were super reasonable and way easier!

I recommend booking your jump online a few days in advance. It really helped me save some cash on the regular price, plus I avoided that pesky waiting line when I got there!

My advice is to dress in comfortable clothes and bring some layers. I was freezing in the morning but it warmed up quickly after the jump, so I ended up regretting my tank top!

My advice is to check for promo codes online beforehand. I found a discount on a travel deal site that saved me a good chunk of change!

I recommend booking the sunset flight if you can! The views are stunning and the colors in the sky are just breathtaking. Seriously, it's worth the extra money for that experience

My advice is to check for discount deals online before booking. I found a promo code that saved me some cash. Every dirham counts when you're in Dubai!

I suggest wearing sunglasses inside the seaplane. The glare from the water and cities can be overwhelming during the flight, and it made my experience much more enjoyable.

Bring your own snacks and drinks if possible. The pricing at the food stalls can get steep. I was surprised by how much I spent just on a couple of drinks

If you're planning to watch a race, check the schedule beforehand. Some events are really popular, and I almost missed a major race because I didn't plan ahead.

My advice is to arrive at least 15 minutes early, especially if you're riding during peak seasons. You don't want to rush and miss the boat!

If you're prone to seasickness, take something before the ride. I was feeling queasy halfway through and regretted not listening to the reviews that mentioned this!

I think going for the 90-minute tour is totally worth it. It gives you just enough time to take in all the sights without feeling rushed.

Check out the Jumeirah Beach area first. Spend some time there before heading to the hotel for a picture-perfect beach shot with the Burj in the background!

Be mindful of the dress code if you plan to dine inside; smart casual is a safe bet. I saw a few people turned away for being too casual.

If you want a quick glance at the interior without spending too much, just stop by the lobby—it's gorgeous and you can take some quick shots.

If you're aiming for great photos, go during the golden hour, just before sunset. The lighting makes the Burj Al Arab look stunning against the sky, and you won't regret it!
