(MENAFN) Dubai Airports will overtake Atlanta and Beijing within the next decade to become the biggest aviation hub in the world, just days after it announced it had overtaken London’s Heathrow as the number one airport for international passenger numbers, Arabian Business reported.
The company showed that the full year passenger numbers at Dubai International totaled 70.475.636, up 6.1 percent from the 66.431.533 recorded in 2013.
This followed robust passenger traffic growth of 7.5 percent in December with 6.498.573 passengers passing through the air hub, a statement from Dubai Airports said.
“This historic milestone is the culmination of over five decades of double-digit average growth that were inspired by the vision of the late Sheikh Rashid Bin Saeed Al Maktoum,” said Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, chairman of Dubai Airports.
