Hi Friends,
Need a quick suggestion on Spotting in DXB(Dubai) at the airport. I am travelling next week. Need your quick suggestions on the good spotting points from the terminal.
Wish to capture the 380's!

Search on airliners.net; there are a lot of threads discussing spotting in the middle east.

Thanks for your suggestions guys. As suggested,I did find spotting very difficult there at DXB. I tried many locations, but somehow one security person would come up to me, take my camera and ask me to delete the most recent pictures in front of him!
I had the bad luck of deleting an A380 picture that I took from the Rashidiya station(Metro station). I spotted her after waiting for half an hour... But the security person took my camera and after lots of maafis she suggested me delete the pics that I took from there before her eyes.
Within minutes...... the picture of the A380 beauty was gone!!! I was literally crying!!!  and I was very angry as well on that person.

In Dubai it is illegal to spot outside the airport (although I had zero difficulty spotting from the hotel, which was near the airport). However, within the airport it is not very difficult to spot, and no guard ever stopped me even though many of them saw me taking photos of the aircraft.
