Stopover Time in Dubai - is 75 mins too little?

    As the title says. I'm heading from Dublin to Auckland in October. The night flight with Emirates hits Dubai, and there is 1hr 15mins to get from that plane to the next one for the onward journey to Auckland. Is that time long enough to get between planes?

    I was in Dubai in March its a big airport I had a 2 hour stopover which was tight enough, I had to get from terminal 1 to terminal 3 but there is a train you get which will bring you to your terminal save you a bit of time

    If it's all booked on the same ticket, it's up to Emirates to ensure you get on that flight in time, as they planned the ticket timings. As soon as you disembark the plane head straight to the gate, follow the connecting flights signs.

    I made it before with 55 minutes, granted it was very tight. As previois people said they have to ensure you get the flight, plus they will know you are connecting from an arriving one so should be OK. We were worried and asking airport staff bit they assured us it will be fine

    we had a 1hr changeover (flight delayed) in dubai when flying from sydney to dublin last november with emirates booked under one ticket, when we arrived in dubai there were emirates staff shouting out for different locations we followed a person with her hand up, into lift on a train off a train onto a golf cart and whizzed to our plane, not for the inactive or faint hearted,
