Following the UAE's record-breaking rainfall, thousands of aviation sector employees united to restore operations and aid guests at Dubai International Airport (DXB) and Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC). Now, after grappling with the aftermath of the heaviest rainfall in 75 years, Dubai Airports is back to full operational capacity, resuming its normal flight schedules.

Dubai International Airport (DXB) has successfully resumed its regular flight schedules, managing approximately 1,400 flight movements daily, as confirmed by Paul Griffiths, CEO of Dubai Airports.
