It will be Khalifa as you can only go up AlArab if you are a resident, Sirius gold card holder or if you have a dining reservation

It's the Khalifa and we'll be there in April over our Easter holiday period. Sounds like it was busy for you! Maybe fast-track tickets will be the better option. Thanks

It’s an amazing view. We went up it about 8 years ago and there was a bit of a sandstorm so we could only just make out the outline of the Burj Al Arab hotel on Jumeirah Beach.

Without sand or haze you can see them clearly and on a good day you can see Atlantis and the Palm
Always best to avoid mornings as heat haze definitely restricts visibility then

Would have really liked to have been able to make Atlantis out from there. We must have picked a bad time.

Haha we’ve been going there for the past 4 years but mix it up a bit between emirates.

Never really considered going up there again but might just give it a go.
