Beware traveling with young children
We booked a holiday to Dubai through travel republic, everything was fantastic up until we reached our resort. Emirates was amazing as always we were given a night flight arriving @7.35am once we got our transfer to the hotel it was 10am then went to check in @Rixos Bab Al bahr we were told check in will be @3pm there was not once a piece of information or paperwork on travel republic stating this, we had to sit in reception for 5 hours with 3 children not being able to change out of their tracksuits at 41degrees outside so had to sit in air zones reception could not eat in reception so had to skip breakfast buffet and lunch. We’re only aloud drinks, I have never experienced a package holiday and having to wait till check in, only if I have booked a hotel separate from a flight , beware not to travel with children through travel republic, the wait time in the lobby was nearly as long as our flight I am actually still sitting here we have 30 minutes to go till check in
