Is there a problem with access to the city in Dubai if you have been to Israel?
We are going to fly to Thailand at the end of the year. Friends say that there are 2 ways - expensive and not much shorter through Moscow and cheaper, but long through Dubai (you have to sit at the airport for almost a day there). I say, they say, I will buy a visa and go to see the city. However, friends said that if you have an Israeli visa in your passport, you will not be allowed into the city (they are at war). I don't have a visa, but I have a Sinai stamp - last year I traveled from Taba to Jerusalem. The question arose - how realistic is it that you have to spend a day at the airport because of such a situation. If anyone knows - tell me, I will be grateful.

To obtain a UAE visa, a copy of the first page of the salary is enough; they simply do not see any other pages with visas. When viewing the original passport, Israeli visas do not bother them. The UAE is not at war with any state at the moment.
The second point is why do you rely on the opinion of some acquaintances when there is such a powerful resource at hand as the Internet? :) They have already misled you three times - regarding a visa, regarding a daily sitting at the airport and regarding possible flight options.
In addition to those indicated, there is an AeroSvit direct flight Kyiv-Bangkok, there is UIA + Etihad via Abu Dhabi. Through Moscow, in principle, it is also possible, but I have never come across a flight convenient in time and cost. The airport connection is not necessarily that long. On the same Etihad, you can choose the time of connection, several flights to Bangkok join there. I personally spent two hours at the Abu Dhabi airport on the way there and an hour and a half on the way back in May of this year.

I will add:
Citizens of Russia, the CIS countries and some other countries must obtain a visa to the UAE in advance. During passport control at the UAE airport, the tourist must present a copy of the electronic visa along with the passport.
So just buying a visa at the airport and walking around the city will not work.

Considering that Pachok has traveled half the world, but has not yet been to Israel. Perhaps she will visit, since the visa regime has been canceled and now you can buy a visa right at the airport. But what the topikstarter writes is true. If you have an Israeli visa, 90% will not give you a visa to the UAE.
Uv templier71 in your passport is not a visa, but transit stamps. This is completely different. The UAE embassy does not pay attention to them. A transit stamp gives you the right to move around the country from 1 to 3 days. Don't worry about it!

"If you have an Israeli visa, 90% will not give you a visa to the UAE"
You have incorrect information. My best friend travels several times a year to Israel to visit her brother and several times a year to visit her friend in Dubai. With the same passport.
"but I haven't been to Israel yet. Maybe I will"
Maybe. But Israel is neither in the top ten countries I would like to visit, nor even in the second.

The question is about visiting Dubai, not how to get to Israel. A person may think that he can walk around Dubai using some kind of transit stamp. With the UAE, the visa regime was not canceled for the CIS countries. Unlike Israel.
Anyone who knows how a visa is obtained in the UAE will understand that previous trips to anywhere (except for the emirates themselves) in no way affect the opening of a visa for the emirates. For an electronic visa, ONLY a copy of the first page of the passport is transmitted. And that's it.
