"You feel like you're in a Hollywood movie," Medvedev told the Russian outlet Bolshe.
The ATP said Wednesday that the "vast majority" of players who had been stuck in Dubai ad "successfully departed".
Medvedev, Khachanov and Rublev are all seeded at Indian Wells, which began on Wednesday, and therefore received first-round byes.
Rublev and Khachanov are scheduled to open their campaigns in the second round on Friday, with Medvedev set to play on Saturday.
