The Mohammed bin Rashid Aerospace Hub in Dubai South has announced a remarkable growth in private aviation traffic during the first half of this year, with 8,472 flights recorded, an increase of 7% compared to the same period last year. A statement issued yesterday said that the growth in private aviation traffic this year comes after record results were recorded in 2023, when the number of private aircraft flights reached about 16,657, with the number of flights expected to reach 18,000 by the end of 2024.
Khalifa Al Zaffin, CEO of Dubai Aviation City Corporation and Dubai South, said that further increases in these results are expected thanks to new projects for aircraft hangars and maintenance facilities in Dubai South, in addition to the project hosting the MEBAA business aviation exhibition scheduled to be held next December.
He stressed the commitment of the Mohammed bin Rashid Aerospace Project to enhance Dubai’s position as a global aviation capital in line with the vision of the wise leadership.
It is noteworthy that the Mohammed bin Rashid Aviation Project provides global companies with investment opportunities in the field of aviation, as it is a free zone for private aviation companies and industries related to the aviation sector.
The project is located within the Dubai South area, which has been developed to be a centre for various types of maintenance and a destination for training and education.
