"
To understand the sheer might of Emirates Airline, you have to go to its Dubai hub at midnight. Between 10pm and 1am, Emirates’ airliners rain down on Dubai International airport – 90 land during this frenetic three-hour period, flying in mainly from Asia, Europe and elsewhere in the Middle East.
These long-range aircraft – Emirates is the world’s largest operator of the Airbus A380 superjumbo and Boeing 777 jet – are then rapidly prepared for their next flights. About 60 jets roar out of Dubai between 2am and 4am.
The waves of aircraft highlight how Emirates’ Terminal 3 at Dubai International has become a hub for millions of passengers criss-crossing the world. Rush hour happens in the middle of the night as bleary-eyed passengers spend a few hours in the airport’s duty free shopping malls between their incoming and outgoing flights."
