Hi There,
I'm a Canadian citizen who made a runner last year. I had about AED100,000 on my credit card. I lost my job and had a choice to a) go to prison or b) flee the country. I chose b. Please don't lecture me on right or wrong. Here is my question to you. I'm planning on going to India and have a transfer flight in Dubai. Will I encounter any problems if I don't go through the immigration and don't leave the airport.

yes, you will be arrested, that is a certainty, does not matter if you don't pass immigration.

Come on guys. You can do better than that. Base it on facts or personal experiences.

I don't think anyone here actually will give you any kind of information, your a criminal and should be brought to justice, its as simple as that.

Hey Osama. I didn't ask to be judged by you. So shut your hole before CIA tracks you down.

This is what it looks like to transit at Dubai Airport

You use a credit card because a bank let you borrow the money you dont have , when you lose your job you even have less and with your cancelled visa your ability to repay your debt goes out the window.
Sage, is this a crime? like...worst than robbing a bank? at least the robber leaves after his prison term is completed, the debtor can only be freed after he pays back the debt, which means never if he cant.
So you think prison is the only option? You must have a lot of frustration in your life to be so mean.
In my country, the debtor does not go to jail and the bank eventually gets its money back which ever way.

So you are trying to justify deliberately breaking the law, why would anyone spend what they don't have?

Lets not get all philosophical here. Although I agree with you in theory (we can argue this is the biggest reason for the global economy to be in trouble) but its not always possible. We are all humans and people make mistakes. There is no mechanism in Dubai to deal with this "mistake". And if your one of the unfortunate ones who are caught up in this mess, what do you suggest to them? Have some sympathy Onion, if you can't show empathy.

I would strongly suggest you find another way to travel without having to stopover in Dubai. Unfortunately there are many like you who got themselves in a hole and had no choice but to do a runner. I say avoid Dubai at all costs!!!

If your name is in the system, avoid transit, period, dont become a statistic, It s a known fact that Dubai Airport is swarmed with undercover officers who dissect passenger manifests and bust passengers for having pain killers or for breaking the ego of these low life officers with colorful langage.

Come through Dubai, no problem, come and face the problem that you have left behind you.
