12:50 p.m .: Dubai airport at full capacity, a first since the Covid
Dubai airport, one of the busiest in the world, announced on Monday that it was operating at full capacity for the first time since March 2020 and the start of the Covid-19 health crisis in this Gulf emirate.
Dubai was one of the first tourist destinations to open its doors to foreign visitors in July of 2020. Since then, against a backdrop of all-out vaccination, its beaches, restaurants and shopping centers have attracted many visitors. DXB, Dubai’s international airport, is now “100% operational,” with all terminals, services, restaurants and shops now open, he said in a statement.
