"
Closer to the border with neighbouring Abu Dhabi than Dubai’s bustling city centre, the airport only hosts cargo carriers and a handful of passenger airlines, and is a remote destination for most of the city state’s residents. Indeed, the ride through multiple roundabouts from the airport’s entrance to the modest passenger terminal at the heart of this 56 sq km facility feels like a journey in itself.
Yet Dubai’s constant evolution looks set for a new phase as it embarks on a $32bn investment plan to ramp up the airport’s capacity from handling 5m passengers a year to at least 120m by 2022 – and possibly as many as 200m by 2050."
