Dubai International Airport (DXB)<\/strong> raises its annual passenger traffic forecast to 64.3 million following 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.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DXB recorded 18.5 million passengers in Q3, the first time that quarterly traffic reached pre-pandemic levels since 2020. DXB had recorded 17.8 million passengers in the first quarter of 2020 prior to the pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe growth in passenger traffic has been terrific throughout the year and continues to exceed our expectations by a margin. While we are thrilled with the numbers, what really gives us immense satisfaction is how the airport community is working together like a well-oiled machine to keep raising the bar on service quality\u201d said Paul Griffiths, CEO of Dubai Airports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Key facts and figures<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

DXB recorded 397,676 tonnes of freight in the Q3, bringing the total volume for the first nine months of 2022 to 1,307,691 tonnes, a year on year drop of 23.3%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
