Only passengers will be allowed inside the Dubai International (DXB) airport during “peak periods”, its operator has said. The authorities advised passengers to exchange their farewells at home.
It’s customary for many residents to drop their relatives at the airport and wait in the terminals until they complete their check-in formalities.
“Access to the arrivals’ forecourts in both Terminals 1 and 3 is restricted to public transport and authorised airport vehicles only,” DXB said in an advisory issued ahead of the summer travel rush.
