will be travelling to dubai in april for a week or so with missus and 2 kids(1yr and 4yr)

any advice on what to take ie medication etc

will we have to apply for a visa at dubai airport?

any advice no matter how small will be a great help.

No visa required and I suppose you would only take medication you think you might need. Loads of sunscreen required.

Make sure you take a load of duty free as alcohol is expensive there.

Do not whatever you do take any form of codeine based medication e.g. Solpadene, Cocodamol. Codeine is illegal in Dubai and you could end up in jail.

Think I'm joking? Take a look at these...
