Within ten years Dubai’s main airport will move to a new desert mega-hub, projected to be the busiest on the planet.

Located 28 miles south-west of Dubai, Al Maktoum International Airport will have the largest capacity of any on Earth, with the potential to carry up to 260 million passengers per year.

It will replace the existing Dubai International Airport, already the busiest in the world for international traffic, handling 87 million passengers in 2023. Only Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson airport is busier, with 105 million mostly domestic passengers in 2023.
