As before, they also arranged various gifts, including copies of the holy Quran, umbrellas and first aid kits to receive the tourists at the DXB.

He further added that it would be an extremely busy period at the DXB airport because of the seasonal rush, and they also want their guests to have the smoothest airline experience possible.
