Dubai International Airports will have an annual capacity of 75 million passengers following the completion of its ongoing expansion project that will include the construction of a new Terminal and two new Concourses. The airport will become the world’s first aviation facility of its size specifically designed for the Airbus A380 and the new hub of Emirates, the carrier recognized internationally as the world’s fastest growing airline.
