Since the Earth is roughly spherical (ball-shaped), you can head out either eastward
or westward from the International Dateline and wind up anywhere you want to be.
If Dubai is your final destination and you are presently anywhere on the International
Dateline ... with two exceptions ... then the shortest route to Dubai is westward
from your present location.
The exceptions are the very end-points of the International Dateline at the north and
south poles. At the poles, there is no such thing as 'east' or 'west', so no matter
where your final destination is, you would need to head out toward the south from
the north pole, or towards the north from the south one.
