The annual traffic forecast, which was predicted in May at 58.3 million, has doubled during the year’s first half. Mr Griffiths said that if the second half of the year is as loaded as it was in the first half, we can easily reach the levels of Pre-pandemic in 2023.

Dubai International Airport said that they had handled around 86.4 million passengers in 2019, and the number of passengers can match in 2024 easily.

In addition, Mr Griffiths said that they are recovering as they are reaching passenger levels up to 75 per cent as Japan, Thailand, Australia, and New Zealand are reopening their borders and the world, except for China, is mainly returning to normal.
