Dubai World Central is set to reopen to passengers in May 2022, two years after the coronavirus pandemic forced the city to suspend operations at its second airport.

“We’ve got to do some work on the runway at Dubai International Airport and with the reduction in capacity we’ll start to move operations back to DWC,” Chief Executive Officer Paul Griffiths said at the airshow on Sunday. “But it’s really determined by the recovery of traffic overall.”
