(11 February 2020)

 

Dubai World Central (DWC) registered a surge in customer numbers in 2019 with annual traffic exceeding 1.6 million (+81.5%) during 2019. The sharp increase in customer numbers was primarily the result of the relocation of operations by a number of international carriers during the 45-day closure of Dubai International’s (DXB) southern runway for rehabilitation in April-May 2019. 

Year on year traffic also increased in the final quarter of the year compared with 2018 as DWC welcomed 363,626 customers in Q4 (+38.2%), mainly due to seasonal operations by chartered airlines. 

Top destinations in 2019
Regions contributing to traffic growth at DWC during 2019 were CIS (583,763), followed by South Asia (380,000), and the GCC (281,244).  Russia was the top country destination with 549,806 customers followed by Saudi Arabia (201,138) and India (193,900). The top cities served by the DWC network included Moscow (253,092), Budapest (60,098) and Jeddah (55,873)
