How far is the Conrad from the airport ?

10-15 minutes.

Forgot to add, It's an overnight stopover. Landing about 6:30 p.m. and leaving the next day at 3:00.
I don't think I can fit all the above, into that time frame.

See my TR for what we did in Dubai. We had even less time and got to see a decent amount of sites. We stayed at the Conrad as well.

Looks like I'll have a stopover for about 20-21 hours in Dubai.
What should I prioritize in regards to tourism?

Dubai Mall/Burj Khalifa and a desert tour.

for the Burj Khalifa what tickets should I book?
Is sunset worth the extra $$? and I assume floor 125 is good enough?

We did the higher deck and I don't think it's worth it.  We also did the first one after sunset where it was cheaper and I thought it was still spectacular.

Any issues with the milk in Dubai?
I know camel's milk is consumed there

[AJK]

How does the latter statement not resolve the question?

Are you staying in a hotel? If so you can definitely ask the hotel and from reading around, many confirm them using cow milk.

If it was a simple as "asking the proprietor," Rav Moshe wouldn't have needed his heter.

I might be not so well read on this very specific topic so my question is, if a milk container in a hotel in Dubai displays that it is 100% cow milk, is that not good enough?

[AJK]

No.

[dealfinder85]

No.

ya i think the whole point of rav moshe was that america has all these strict governmental rules with what can be passed off as cow's milk. so if a country doesnt have those rules, what is to stop them from claiming it's 100% cow's milk
