Dubai Airports, in conjunction with its many service partners, will extend a warm welcome to pilgrims. Beginning on June 22nd, Saudia will be the first airline to operate a pilgrimage flight departing from Terminal 1 at DXB Airport.
DXB has implemented measures, including as dedicated counters at check-in, passport, and security, in order to keep service levels at their previous levels. Additionally, there will be separate entrances and exits for pilgrimage planes.
“It is going to get rather busy in the coming weeks because the Hajj season overlaps with the peak travel season of the summer, but the staff at DXB have finished all of the required planning and preparation to meet and surpass the expectations of our visitors. “We are prepared to give the Hajj pilgrims a special welcome this year,” said Mohammed Al Marzouqi, the Head of the Hajj Committee at Dubai Airport. “We hope you have a safe and blessed journey.”
