National carriers operated 27,000 flights during June of this year, compared to about 13,000 flights in the same month last year, a growth of about 107%.
The data also showed that Dubai International Airport achieved a strong performance during the second quarter of 2022, which contributed to the number of passengers traveling through the airport during the first six months of the year increasing to about 27.9 million, exceeding the number of passengers during the past year by about 1.2 million.
It is noteworthy that this strong performance was despite the reduced capacity of the airport during the renovation of the northern runway, which lasted for 45 days last May and June.
