Dubai’s DXB hailed as world’s busiest international airport in May
Dubai International Airport (DXB) has been named the world’s busiest airport in May, as air travel returns and borders reopen due to mass Covid-19 vaccination drive by the UAE government.
The Dubai airport’s scheduled capacity was nearly 1.9 million passengers in May, according to aviation intelligence firm OAG.
DXB also maintained its status as the busiest airport for international passengers in the first quarter of the year, when it handled 5.75 million passengers during the January-March 2021 period.
