Passenger statistics and history

In 2025, Dubai International handled 95.2 million passengers, making it the world's busiest airport for international traffic. The airport opened in 1960 and has grown in step with Dubai's rise as a global transfer hub; Terminal 3, opened in 2008, was purpose-built for long-haul operations. Traffic figures move from year to year, so read that number as an indication of scale rather than a live count.

Getting to Dubai International Airport

The airport is roughly 20 km (13 mi) from the centre of Dubai, measured in a straight line. The Dubai Metro Red Line stops at Terminals 1 and 3, and buses and taxis run around the clock, and downtown Dubai is only a few kilometres away. Two evergreen tips regardless of how you travel: confirm your terminal before leaving, and if you are picking someone up, track the inbound flight on this site first: you want to arrive when the aircraft actually lands, not when it was scheduled to.
