Dubai jumps Heathrow as ‘world’s busiest international airport

Dubai is a magnificent city that lays claim to an array of magnificent feats, the World’s tallest building, largest artificial island and now the World’s busiest international airport’!

Dubai airport’s operator said that with the influx of foreign investors and tourists, the airport has welcomed a staggering 70.5 million passengers last year. If you’re planning to join these crowds and looking for Palm Jumeirah hotels for a blissful holiday, the Anantara Dubai The Palm Resort & Spa is a most convenient choice as it is only approximately 38 minutes away.

Clinching the title of the ‘World’s busiest airport’, Dubai has overthrown London’s Heathrow airport which was only able to attract 68.1 million international passengers last year. With nearly all of the flights from the UAE airport are to or from international destinations, the Dubai International Airport expects that this year’s traffic would jump to 79 million passengers.
