Dubai has started to welcome visitors and tourists from today while adhering to the highest standards of health and safety in line with international protocols, Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, president of the Dubai Civil Aviation Authority and CEO and founder of the Emirates Group, said on Tuesday.
Dubai officially rolled out the red carpet for the first set of holidaymakers who landed at the Dubai International Airport as soon as the clock struck 12 on Tuesday (July 7).
The combined efforts of the UAE's leadership, government and tourism sector stakeholders as well as Dubai Airports, Emirates Airlines and flydubai have resulted in the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC) recognising Dubai as a safe destination and giving the city a Safe Travel stamp, Sheikh Ahmed tweeted.
