Holiday Rush at Major Middle Eastern Airports

From 3-15 April, airports in the UAE, particularly Dubai and Qatar’s Hamad International Airport expect a massive influx of travellers given the Eid Al Fitr holiday period. Long queues at baggage check-in counters and security checks may be expected. Additional security personnel may be deployed at airports to tackle large crowds and reduce delays.

Similar holiday rushes can be expected at airports in other Middle Eastern countries like Saudi Arabia, Oman, Kuwait and Bahrain.
