Dubai’s aviation scenario with the current runway upgrades is set to prepare for future development. The airport authorities are confident that the next project that will soon become a reality is a new concourse. The Concourse D which will be connected to an existing terminal by automated train is due to open in the first quarter of next year. A trial run is planned to be conducted soon.

The fourth concourse is part of the US$7.8 billion expansion programme designed to boost the airport’s capacity to over 100 million passengers annually by 2020.

“We are on the mark in terms of giving a big boost to the aviation industry which we anticipate will contribute 32 per cent to Dubai’s GDP by 2020,” said His Highness Sheikh Ahmed bin Saeed Al Maktoum, president of DCAA and chairman of Dubai Airports.

Mohammed Abdulla Ahli, director general of DCAA further added: “In todays competitive and performance-driven business environment in both government and private sectors, having cutting-edge technology, aggressive marketing strategies and customer services is just not enough for an organization to be successful. A good human resources management is one the most important elements in determining the success or failure of an organization.”
