“We have school holidays coming up and we have a major Eid holiday here in the UAE," Mr Griffiths said.

"Looking forward to the Expo and various other events … and the fact that the UAE throughout the pandemic has remained opened to so many countries around the world, we are anticipating a huge surge in inbound and outbound traffic over the next few months."

"Dubai’s aviation sector has been at the forefront of a global campaign to restore vital international air services with the opening of quarantine-free travel corridors between the UAE and multiple countries around the world," Dubai Airports chairman Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed said in a statement released by the Dubai Media Office.
