Travelers in Dubai are being advised to check their flight status with their airlines as heavy rainfall hits parts of the country.

This comes after Dubai Airports announced that DXB is experiencing flight disruptions due to the unstable weather conditions.

They have also told customers to give themselves ample time to arrive at the airport to avoid any delays and to use Dubai Metro as an alternative mode of transportation when roads are congested during the rainy season. 

Customers can check their flight status and details on http://dubaiairports.ae.
