Dubai International (DXB) has won the ‘Airport of the Year’ award at the Aviation Business Awards 2022.
Paul Griffiths, CEO of Dubai Airports received the award at a ceremony held recently.

The airport welcomed 28 million passengers in the first half of 2022, nearly three times the volume during the same period last year, while not only maintaining but enhancing its service quality and ensuring a seamless travel experience for guests across all its touch points.
The move follows “a strong performance by the hub in the third quarter, and the prospects of a stronger surge in the offing in the final three months of 2022,” the airport group said last month.
Average monthly traffic exceeded the 6 million mark through the third quarter of 2022, with the airport recording 18.5 million passengers, achieving pre-pandemic levels since 2020.
