I am an Indian citizen travelling to Muscat from USA via Dubai. To Dubai by United Airlines via Zurich. Six hours later from Dubai by flydubai.

Since it is a separate booking, do I require a transit visa for Dubai?

"Airline transit passengers travelling with a stopover at Dubai Airport (or other UAE airport) who do not leave the terminal building, do not need a UAE visa since they are not entering the UAE. "

Taken from http://www.dubaifaqs.com/visa-transit-dubai.php

Moreover "Transit passengers stopping at Dubai International Airport for a minimum of 8 hours and meeting certain conditions mentioned below are eligible for obtaining a 96-hour transit visa."

from http://www.uae.org.br/Ingles/Consular/transvisa.htm

So technically you CANNOT and therefore need not apply for a transit visa
