DUBAI'S TOURISM SETS SIGHTS ON EXPO

Lessons from the second-half 2020 bounce will be take on board as Dubai works on a roadmap to get its tourism sector fire all cylinders. Dubai's tourism industry will be looking to consolidate its gradual return to form ahead of the Expo event as well as the UAE's 50th anniversary celebrations later this year. This, according to the Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing, will provide the best pathway to building the 'second-half rebound in 2020'. According to Paul Griffiths, CEO of Dubai Airports, "We will continue to position Dubai in the lead of the recovery of global aviation with more than 146 cities in 80 countries already being served by 56 airlines, retaining our position as the world's busiest international airport."
