Dubai Airports has announced that Dubai International Terminal 1 and Concourse D will reopen on 24 June.
In an effort to control the spread of the pandemic and as a result of limited flights, the facilities were closed on 25 March 2020.
With travel now increasing, Terminal 1 and Concourse D will reopen to accommodate passengers travelling to various countries around the world with different airlines.
Concourse D is linked to Terminal 1 by an airport train and has capacity of 18 million passengers.
Over 40 international carriers that are currently operating at Terminal 2 and Terminal 3 will return to Terminal 1.
Passengers need to confirm the terminal of their flight for departure and arrival as flights will be relocated by the end of June.
His Highness Sheikh Ahmed Bin Saeed Al Maktoum, Chairman of Dubai Airports said, “Dubai’s aviation sector has been at the forefront of a global campaign to restore vital international air services with the opening of quarantine-free travel corridors between the UAE and multiple countries around the world. This move signals our confidence that the outlook for the rest of the year and beyond is one of optimism, as well as being a clear indication of Dubai’s intent to lead the aviation industry in its efforts to enable social and economic recovery of the world. This reopening is a collaborative effort of the many stakeholders involved in the operation of the world’s largest international airport and we are delighted to be able to make this important step towards the restoration of full airport operations.”
