Emirates to reduce flights during Dubai airport runway closure next year | Reuters:

Emirates is to reduce the number of flights it operates by nearly a third for 45 days next year when one of two runways at Dubai International Airport is closed for upgrade work, the airline said on Thursday.

The southern runway will be closed from April 16 to May 30, 2019 for resurfacing and replacement of ground lighting and other infrastructure.

Dubai International, which handled 88.2 million passengers in 2017, is the base for airlines Emirates and flydubai, and an engine for Dubai’s economy, which relies heavily on tourism and travel.
