Dubai airport first quarter passenger traffic falls 2.2 percent to 22.2 million - Reuters:
Dubai International Airport’s first quarter passenger traffic fell 2.2 percent to 22.2 million compared to the same period a year earlier, which operator Dubai Airports partly blamed on the worldwide grounding of the Boeing 737 MAX.
The drop in quarterly passenger figures was largely due to a 3 percent reduction in flights, some caused by the 737 MAX grounding, and the timing of the Easter break this year, Dubai Airports said on Sunday.
The MAX has been grounded since an Ethiopian Airlines MAX crashed in March which followed a LionAir crash last October, killing a total of 346 people.
