Dubai airport sees passenger travel surge, hikes annual forecast | Reuters
The operator of Dubai International said on Wednesday over 14 million passengers had travelled through the airport in the second quarter, and raised its forecast for the year to 62.4 million passengers.
That was the ninth consecutive quarter that saw greater passenger figures than the prior quarter as international travel demand ramps up amid an easing of pandemic restrictions worldwide.
Dubai's airport screened 14.2 million passengers in the April to June period, nearly three times the 4.9 million in the same quarter a year earlier, Dubai Airports said in a statement.
The airport, the busiest for international travellers globally, handled 27.9 million in the first half, more than double the number of a year ago and just short of the 29.1 million recorded in all of 2021.
